OVERVIEW
PJ Dick and its sister company, Trumbull Corporation were chosen to perform the site grading and sewer installation for a new sports facility to be used by both the University of Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
After removing the existing concrete foundation remaining on the 16- acre site from the former LTV Southside Works, PJ Dick and Trumbull began construction of the riverwalk and retaining walls. Then they began planning field construction and infrastructure work associated with the development of the $30 million sports facility, such as irrigation, roadway and street scope, field lighting, and a 3,500 sf maintenance facility. All work was completed in less than 90 calendar days.
