Project Details

Park Cities Presbyterian Church expanded and updated its historic Dallas campus to create more space for ministry, education, and community activities while preserving the character of the original church. StormTrap provided a compact 5′-0″ SingleTrap detention system to address poor soil conditions and limited site space while accommodating the project’s stormwater management needs.

Challenge

The campus expansion needed to preserve the church’s historic architecture while fitting a detention system into a constrained footprint. A quick installation was also required to support the project schedule.

Solution

StormTrap provided a 5′-0″ SingleTrap detention basin as a compact alternative to a traditional pipe system. The solution reduced the system footprint while addressing site constraints and was installed in just three days.
