The town of Ramsey, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis, has a history of taking a long term view of community development. The park is to be the center of a new commercial life-style. The build it and they will come approach to this development dictated that durable, long lasting, low maintenance, sustainable materials be used since resources for maintenance would be limited for several years. The result is a beautiful venue that will provide low maintenance relaxation and entertainment for the residents of Ramsey, Minnesota.

Hot-dip galvanizing was chosen to protect the structures from the elements, including the cold Minnesota winters, humid summers, and human contact. The galvanized bridge and hand rails used in the park will withstand the attack from common liquid de-icers and rock salt necessary to keep residents safe from icy conditions.  Low maintenance requirements combined with a high level of functionality and safety will make this a favorite recreation spot for generations to come.
