Alliance Center North 1 and 2, home to LG Electronics and Walmart, are two large industrial buildings (each more than 1M SF) on adjacent sites occupying more than 80 acres in the 872-acre Alliance Center North development. Each site contains distribution center buildings, employee parking, truck courts, trailer storage areas, and ample landscaping. Combined truck/trailer and auto parking total 515 and 431 spaces, respectively. Our team provided entitlement, surveying, planning, site design, and engineering services for the two sites, as well as off-site infrastructure necessary to serve the sites. The project also involved the abandonment of 6,000 linear feet of existing county road, and the design of a temporary roadway to maintain traffic flow through the area.

Peloton Land Solutions, a Westwood company evaluated reclamation scenarios for the entire Alliance Center North sector to recover developable land without causing impacts to adjacent or downstream properties. In addition, a hydraulic analysis of this area was performed for use in the planning of a future park. Peloton Land Solutions, a Westwood company was also responsible for on-site drainage of the development, new channels and storm drain networks, and a downstream assessment.

GAIN GROUND: Our engineers modeled the subsurface conveyance and connected above-ground detention and conveyance systems for both sites to handle large runoff volumes. This challenging drainage design ultimately provided a cost savings on drainage infrastructure.
