Description

Tolt Avenue is the main street of the City of Carnation and "the heart of the community," according to the project website. The official name of the project is the SR 203/Tolt Avenue Central Business District Improvements. Improvements extended from East Eugene Street to East Rutherford Street. The street and sidewalks were revamped and utilities were reconstructed.

Materials

8 tons of 2 Man Streambed Boulders

Highlights

Our Quality Control Lab manager hosted representatives from contracting agency KPG Psomas, landscaper Castaneda Landscaping, and the Lee Arts Foundation at our Kapowsin Quarry location. The group handpicked 70 boulders that would be used in the plantings alongside the street. Our boulders are a small part of the overall project, but we're proud that they will become part of the main street landscape.
