Frank N. Andersen Recreation Complex Project

Spicer Group was responsible for designing and overseeing construction of the new Frank N. Andersen Recreational Complex – a universally-accessible focused facility that exceeds Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards located in Bridgeport Charter Township in Saginaw County. The complex has a universally-designed multi-purpose field, restrooms, entry tower, parking areas, and pathways linking to other park facilities and the surrounding community. Designs included a new parking lot, storm water drainage, electrical, water/sanitary sewer and lighting.

The facility serves as a multi-purpose outdoor athletic complex with a custom-designed synthetic turf athletic field. People of all abilities can use the complex for baseball, softball, basketball, soccer, tennis, and many other sports.

The complex was developed with support from a $500,000 Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Trust Fund grant and another $600,000 that was raised by Bridgeport Charter Township. This project is the first universally-designed facility specifically created and built for multi-sports and events.
