Trinity Park
Somerset, Pennsylvania
SGA led the transformation of an underutilized site in Somerset’s Uptown district into Trinity Park, a compact, multi-functional public space that now anchors downtown. Inspired by regional geology, the design blends natural character with urban functionality, incorporating reclaimed historic brick and solar pavers to support year-round use.
The park features sculptural white oak seating, flexible gathering areas, and an open plaza for events like markets and festivals. It also includes the town’s first large-scale rain garden, enhancing stormwater management and ecological value. Overall, Trinity Park highlights sustainable design, adaptive reuse, and placemaking to foster community engagement and long-term resilience.
