For this lakefront beach restroom, we partnered with the City of Rocky River who made upgrades to Bradstreet’s Landing Park where they reconstructed the pier that extends into Lake Erie. The city also made upgrades to the park, parking lot, restroom, walkways, and other items that enhanced the visitor experience.
We worked directly with the City of Rocky River on the design of this lakefront beach restroom, which is near the parking lot, and sidewalks that lead to the beach and pier area. The building has architectural composition roofing, fiber cement board and batten siding over CMU concrete block wall, stone veneer, timber truss roof extension, and drinking fountains. The building fits in easily with its surroundings in this scenic park known for fishing, birding, walking, and sunset watching.

Popular Beach Park Restroom
Bradstreet’s Landing Park is popular for collecting beach glass, fishing, birding, and watching sunsets along Lake Erie.
The 6-acre park has a 600-foot pier that extends into Lake Erie. As the pier rises 20 feet about the lake’s surface, it is an excellent spot for watching waterbirds. There is also a 300-foot long sand beach just east of the pier.
The pier was reconstructed at the historic Bradstreet’s Landing Pier structure and the surrounding groundwork including erosion and sedimentation control, preparation and demolition, installation of sheet pile walls, filling and grading, and concrete flatwork, installation of pier features and amenities including concrete, railing, a decorative medallion, benches, lighting, planters, and landscaping.
Renovations included shoreline work, site preparation, erosion and sedimentation control, grading, construction of stone revetment, storm sewer construction, electrical service to the pier, and asphalt and concrete paving. Romtec provided a new restroom to replace an ageing restroom at Bradstreet’s Landing Park.

Beachfront Park Restroom
Romtec worked through the preliminary design and budget directly with the City of Rocky River. The restrooms are part of renovations to Bradstreet’s Landing Park being developed by the City. The parking lot was completed in phase 1, and the restrooms and landscaping are included in phase 2, which is also completed.
This is a year-round double restroom building with board and batten siding, stone wainscot, and timber truss roof extension. The “design and supply” was purchased through Sourcewell by the City of Rocky River and the installation will be put out to bid.
Mackay Engineering and Surveying are handling the site design and bid process for the City of Rocky River. Mackay Engineering and Surveying Company are a civil engineering and land surveying firm located in Middleburg Heights, Ohio.
Romtec delivered the supply of the building in a timely manner and helped turned the project around quickly to get it installed on the city’s timeline by Northeast Ohio Trenching Inc.
We worked closely with the City of Rocky River on the design, budget, and delivery of this restroom for the park, to meet their timeline, while also creating a beautiful building that fit in with the trees, Lake Erie, and surrounding beauty at Bradstreet’s Landing Park.
The team that delivered this project including Northeast Ohio Trenching, Inc. And Mackay Engineering & Surveying were great to work with.
