 Bill Noble Park opened in the spring of 2023 in Gardendale, Alabama, 12 miles north of Birmingham. Just minutes off of Interstate 65, this 46-acre multi-faceted sports complex has already proven to be a destination park for both residents and traveling athletes.
HNP Landscape Architecture provided design services from initial Site Planning and Program Development to Ball Trajectory Studies, Playground Design Concept and Coordination, Site Furniture and Amenity Specifications, Landscape Drawings, Irrigation Coordination, Estimation, Field Construction Documentation (Fencing, Equipment, Surface, Grading, Drainage), and ongoing Construction Observation. The park boasts synthetic turf fields for nine softball/baseball diamonds, batting cages, bullpens, and a football/soccer field. It features eight renovated tennis courts, 11 pickleball courts, two basketball courts, and a sand volleyball court. Other special features include an honor wall, concession buildings and grandstands, playground, community building with exterior social space, misting area, event lawns, maintenance facility and a designated area for future nature trails. Throughout the summer, the park hosted adult softball and kickball. Fall was in full swing with baseball, softball, football and pickleball. The park even added numerous special events and vendor markets for the community to enjoy. In December of 2023, the HNP-designed pickleball courts at Bill Noble Park were recognized by the American Sports Builders Association as the Outdoor Pickleball Facility of the Year.

Several Birmingham companies came together to design and build Bill Noble Park, a diversified sports complex that opened in 2023 for the City of Gardendale. Bill Noble Park is a 46-acre destination park featuring more than 30 fields and courts for baseball, softball, soccer, football, tennis, pickleball, and basketball. Incorporating the sheer number of these uses with the additional amenities including a playground, misting area, event lawn, gathering spaces and community building required seamless communication and collaboration. HNP provided landscape architecture services for the entire project, including athletic fields, courts and landscaping design. As construction contractor, Stone Building Co. exhibited the knowledge required for mass grading, structures, fields, courts, landscaping, stormwater, and utilities throughout the project. Grading alone for the park required moving an impressive 300,000 cubic yards of earth and rock. Bill Noble Park was a $33 mil project for the City of Gardendale. Other partners included: LBYD Engineers, Williams Blackstock Architects, and Jackson Renfro & Associates, Inc. Learn more about Stone Building Company here.  |
