The Agricultural and Equestrian Event Center project consists of renovations of the Agricultural Arena, and new construction of an IFAS Extension Office and Auditorium Building, as well as, new restrooms. The Agricultural and Equestrian Center portion of the site previously functioned as the Canterbury Showplace and contains multiple existing facilities, including a large open arena, five shed rows with stalls, a clubhouse/office building, RV facilities, an existing restroom building, fenced pastures, and other miscellaneous sheds, structures, and fenced facilities for horses.
CHW provided professional services for the design of new stormwater infrastructure and modifications to existing stormwater infrastructure that was re-directed to the new on-site stormwater management facilities. Additionally, new water and sewer utilities were added and connected to the City of Newberry utilities; new parking facilities, and a pedestrian circulation was added throughout the site to help facilitate travel to and from parking areas and the various uses and facilities on the site.
