The Project
A brand new, large sports complex with a playground was being built in Rialto, California, to be shared with a local school. The administrators knew they would need restroom facilities, a generous sized concession stand, as well as a maintenance and storage room for sports equipment, concession supplies, and maintenance equipment and supplies. The restroom and concession building needed to be modern, clean, easy to maintain, and sustainable, but with features and fixtures that would stand up to heavy usage by the public and school children . The concession room had to meet all new California and local Health Department codes for public food service, utilizing pre-packaged foods, but not full food service or cooking.
The Solution
Romtec drew up a custom designed floor plan to meet all of the requirements of the park. They put multi-user restrooms on one side and the concession booth and storage/maintenance room on the other side. Romtec proposed their standard split-face block for simplicity and ease in cleaning, but used a high-gloss black on all doors, vents, window frames, and the custom steel truss. It gives the building a very clean and crisp look. Romtec used heavy duty, stainless steel commercial fixtures for long life, and vandal resistance. They supplied a hot water heater and hand-washing sink for the concession area. The end product is a beautiful and inviting facility that makes the park experience and sporting events more enjoyable for everyone, and gives park personnel an easy to care for structure that fills all needs.
