Project Details :
Project Description: Parsons Beach Emergency Stabilization
Owner:
Location: Kennebunk, Maine
Project Team: Walsh Engineering Associates, Inc.
Work Scope:
WEA prepared an emergency stabilization and drainage plan for a private property with a failing seawall. WEA worked with contractors to replace the 100+ year masonry wall. Located in a protected sand dune, and within proximity of the Wells Reserve and piping plover habitat, this project was challenging from several aspects. An innovative design using a geotextile structure with granite block facing provided protection to the multi-million-dollar home with an eye toward preserving the area’s habitat and natural resources.
