This new park at Beaverdam Reservoir in Loudoun County, Virginia was master planned by nationally recognized landscape architect. The park is funded and constructed under a partnership between Loudoun Water and NOVA Parks. The innovative park is designed with “source water protection” in mind. The submitting architect designed a welcome center, crew boat house, and other pavilion facilities to complement the park’s mission of highlighting connections between ecological health, human health, and recreation. The innovative park design includes a boat rental facility, trails, waterfront boardwalks, a bridge, plantings, educational exhibits, and other site features all designed to illustrate the source water protection theme.
