Traverse Landscape Architects

Traverse Landscape Architects specializes in the design and development of athletic facilities, including synthetic turf fields, running tracks, tennis courts, and pickleball courts. The firm provides comprehensive services from concept design through construction completion for public institutions and educational facilities.

With offices in Providence, Rhode Island, and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Traverse has completed athletic complex projects for numerous high schools and middle schools throughout the Northeast. Their portfolio demonstrates expertise in creating multi-use facilities that accommodate both public recreation and scholastic athletics, designed to withstand intensive use patterns.

The firm's approach incorporates site-specific considerations such as topography and natural features into their designs. Their work on the Max Read Field in Pawtucket exemplifies this methodology, where an 85,000-square-foot synthetic turf field, track, and grandstand were designed to take advantage of the site's elevation above the Seekonk River. The project included amenities such as a press box, concession stand, and restrooms, with accessible viewing areas created through strategic placement of bleachers and bridge construction.

Traverse Landscape Architects serves municipalities, school districts, and educational institutions, delivering athletic facilities that balance functional requirements with site opportunities. Their completed projects span Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and surrounding regions.
