As Houghton College transitioned to NCAA Division III athletics, the College pursued the development of expanded athletic facilities. The expansion included artificial turf for the new softball and baseball stadiums and for the re-surfacing of the existing soccer stadium to a 5-sport facility and a 115,000 sf fieldhouse. Keystone provided project programming and planning; architectural design; survey; site development plans including artificial turf, landscape and water retention\/drainage design; geotechnical engineering; structural engineering; plumbing, fire protection, heating and air conditioning design; electrical design; and construction administration and management.<\/p>\n
