Featured Projects

WithersRavenel completed the design and construction documents for Pleasant Park in 2019, and the Town funded the park’s construction with a bond referendum. Despite construction setbacks due to the global pandemic, associated supply chain shortages, and weather, Pleasant Park opened its doors to the general public with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on November 4, 2023. During the first official weekend, more than 10,000 cars passed through the gates to experience this new destination in the Town of Apex.
