“SENSE ”-ATIONAL

Tennis Court MAKE•OVER

Cottonwood Residential property Lake St. James in Conyers, GA repurposed thier aging and underutilized tennis court and breathed new life into it. Now the area is a cheerful Dog Park complete with seating, new sod , and fresh landscaping. It’s better suited to the needs and interests of the residents, it’s more attractive, and it’s greener too. The project was a vision of Lake St. James Apartments, who teamed up with Pet and Playground Products of Eclectic, AL. “A growing number of apartments are re-purposing thier tennis courts,” explains Pet and Playground Products Senior Project Consultant Steve Crum. “It makes more sense than throwing money at tennis court repairs because it creates something new that more residents will use, Plus it looks fantastic. Lake St. James had the added benefit that all of the colorful fixtures and landscaping are visible from the street. People drive by and think ‘hey nice property - something good is happening there!’ ”
