Emerald Park Subdivision

Huitt-Zollars provided civil engineering design services for the Emerald Park Subdivisions, the preliminary plat involved 880 lots on 261 acres. Five separate subdivisions were selected for improvement plans that included final plats, grading plans, drainage area plans and calculations, street plan and profiles, illumination and signing plans, and standard details including driveway and ADA curb ramp details. All the lots and streets were designed to drain by sheet flow to proposed low points where storm sewer systems conveyed the water into retention basins.

Diamond Ridge Subdivision

The Diamond Ridge subdivision consists of 136 lots on more than 60 acres. The lots range in size from one-half acre to adjacent estate lots with an 8,000-SF minimum. Huitt-Zollars provided zone change consulting, design survey, preliminary plat, final plat, construction staking, and construction management.

Zocalo Condominiums

Huitt-Zollars provided grading, drainage, utilities and construction management for Zocalo Condominiums, a 46-unit master planned community in northern Santa Fe. The site needed extensive infrastructure work and earth work to make the plot suitable for construction. The first two phases of the project replicated the feel of a small Mexican village, with brightly colored stucco houses on narrow streets. The third phase incorporated wood-framed lofts rather than condos.

Renaissance at Uptown Orange

Huitt-Zollars provided engineering and surveying services to BRE Properties, a developer of highly desirable apartment communities. The project, located in one of western United States’ most sought after places to live, surrounds the Los Angeles Angels Stadium. The project consists of designing 462 apartment units, a central core four-deck concrete parking structure wrapped by four, four- and five-story wood framed apartment buildings, and a traditional walk-up product located at the posterior of the premises.

Cottonwood Apartments

Huitt-Zollars provided survey and civil engineering services for a site plan layout/configuration of 420 multi-family dwelling units that are divided into five building clusters and located on 16 acres. The site was developed per R-3 zone regulations and is located within a major activity center intended for high density, multi-family residential development. The site supports multi-modal transportation systems within the center. An internal boulevard provides access to the apartments and includes a landscaped median, tree-lined-sidewalks, and parallel parking – all intended to promote pede

Global Reach Drive - El Paso International Airport

Huitt-Zollars designed a six-lane highway to serve as the primary access route for a 573-acre commercial and industrial park at El Paso International Airport. Engineering services included roadway and utility design, erosion control, maintenance roads, security fencing, illumination plan, new traffic signals, landscaping of median, and storm sewer plan and profiles. In addition, six retention basins were designed to hold a 100-year storm, 10-year silt volume, 25% emergency storage with one-foot of freeboard, as per the City of El Paso’s Subdivision Ordinance guidelines.

Dallas Love Field Entrance at Cedar Springs Road

Huitt-Zollars prepared the design to reconstruct and modernize the Cedar Springs Road entrance to Love Field Airport. Beginning at Mockingbird Lane, the project provided for the reconstruction of 4,000 feet of the six-lane divided thoroughfare. The roadway was subject to inundation during storm events and required new storm drain facilities. Additional infrastructure included water and sanitary sewer utilities, traffic signals, landscape architecture and urban design, innovative roadway illumination, and an FBO parking lot.

Lockheed Martin Projects

Huitt-Zollars has provided on-call consulting architectural, engineering, and related services for 90 projects at the Lockheed Martin facilities since 1995. Projects have involved improvements to the aircraft assembly and manufacturing lines, energy conservation, laboratories, test facilities, simulators, paint booths, command center, and office facilities modernization.

San Antonio International Airport East Cargo Apron Expansion

Huitt-Zollars conducted planning studies to develop cargo aircraft mix and space requirements. The studies identified short-range and long-term facility requirements for the East Cargo Handling Center.  The plan developed apron and cargo handling requirements through the year 2020. The site evaluation included proposed aircraft parking positions and evaluation of clearances under the FAR Part 77 Transitional Surface. Huitt-Zollars designed the civil airside improvements and prepared civil construction documents for the cargo apron expansion.

Dallas Love Field Modernization Program Landside

Huitt-Zollars served as Lead Civil Engineer for landside improvements included with the program to develop a new 20-gate air carrier terminal for the airport. The project included widening the Cedar Springs Drive entrance roadway, new water and wastewater utilities, reconstruction of the Aviation Place service roadway, surface parking, traffic signals, pedestrian tunnels, landscaping, walls, ADA compliance, signage, and ITS systems. Drainage improvements eliminated roadway inundation problems.
