Premiere Sports Fields + Stadium Facility

Nilsson + Associates Architects helped Endicott College and a terrific team to renovate existing facilities to create a premier division III sports stadium facility. To facilitate the upgrades N+A Architects completed code analyses and compliance and coordination reviews for all consultants’ construction documents.  We lead the permitting process for the team, as the Architect of Record, providing; certified Architectural memoranda, affidavits, and construction documents. We also facilitated communications with state and local permitting agencies and submitted a coordinated set of all the consultants' drawings for permitting.

The project scope of works included a multipurpose synthetic in-fill turf sports field, dugouts, elevated spectator seating and press box, a cable stayed netting backstop system, site walls, fencing and netting, sport lighting, ADA access, a donor recognition / entry plaza, and storm water management / infiltration system.

College Perspective

"We know from our experience on campus that these sports facilities improvements will have a positive affect on the sports programs and our college community. The accessibility improvements and new seating will make the sports events open to more of the student body and the local community. Our new synthetic turf fields not only extend the season and allow for more events but they will also reduce required maintenance and improve the playing conditions. This facility is a win for everybody."

-Dennis Monaco, Director of Facilities at Endicott College

"Our student athletes, our sports faculty and our sports programs are all about pride and passion.  We challenge our coaches and student athletes to be both academically strong and strong on the field. So we work to provide quality facilities that parallel the quality we work for in our programs. The result of our past effort is clear; our field hockey team has won two straight conference champion ships, and our baseball team is ranked regionally.  The improvement that we've made in this latest project brings the quality of our field hockey and baseball fields in line with the rest of our sports" facilities.

- Brian Wylie , Director of Athletics, Endicott College
