Projects

The new 50-foot coastal observation tower at Lake Erie Bluffs overlooks the lakeshore with multiple viewing platforms along a staircase that culminates in a deck featuring 360-degree views. The height and location of the tower provide visitors with a unique view of the lake and the surrounding woods, fields and wetlands, along with a variety of wildlife – particularly a large number of bald eagles that are regularly seen at the park.
We are proud to help bring new excitement to children and their families while at the Farmpark. The project is one of several recent improvements and upgrades undertaken by the park and will serve as a hands-on area for kids and adults, offering relaxation, play and educational demonstrations.
