In the business sector, Maglin's HBSPA benches line up on both sides of the pedestrian street. "The planting and lines of the benches added character and a more ordered approach to the business sector", said John Wright, Landscape Architect with CSW. "The Street gets a large volume of pedestrian traffic especially around lunch time, and the use of Maglin's benches broke up the space quite nicely".
Kevin Brady of D&G Landscaping, the prime contractor on the project, was responsible for bidding on the initial project, project management, and the installation of Maglin benches.
