This project features "Great Basin" inspired patterning for retaining walls, sculptural piers, pier caps, native landscaping, rain harvesting, and the new Meadowood Mall Way overcrossing bridge with light towers inspired by local rock formations. Improvements include two bridge widening renovations. It is one of the first projects to apply NDOT's US-395 Landscape and Aesthetics Corridor Plan, involving extensive participation with neighborhood groups. Emphasis is on regional identity and the environment, combining aesthetics with native landscaping and rain harvesting. The light towers feature programmable LED lighting, marking community events, holidays and seasons, creating anticipation of celebration throughout the year.
