Jones Point Park is designed as a local neighborhood park with regional and national historic interest. Situated under the Woodrow Wilson Bridge the park space includes a 700 sf maintenance and restroom. As a leader in environmental understanding, VDOT has called for a “green” building.

As such, Setty & Associates designs include:

  • Photovoltaics for power, lighting and heating
  • Utilization of run-off from the vast square footage of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge roadway surface as a source of grey water for the toilet rooms
  • The Building is designed to maximize daylighting to reduce lighting energy consumption, by utilizing shadowing profiles
  • Passive ventilation systems throughout the toilet areas to reduce energy requirements for toilet room ventilation
  • Composting toilets, detaching the building from the city’s sanitary system to reduce impact on environment
  • Grey water recycling
  • Ground Source Heat Pump
  • New 120/208 V, 3-Ph electrical distribution, power, cables and panelboard
  • Occupancy sensors in maintenance room office lighting.
  • CW/HW piping distribution to for 3-stall men and women’s bathrooms.
  • ADA bathroom fixtures.
