East Side Fire Protection District
North Belt Fire Station Renovation

FGM worked with the East Side Fire Protection District to completely renovate their existing
volunteer North Belt Road Fire Station. In desperate need of exterior improvements and interior
finish upgrades, FGM provided a new $623,000 plan with small entry and bathroom addition
which allowed space for a kitchen expansion. This modern feel achieved in the station, along
with necessary kitchen and bath improvements created a station the volunteers want to inhabit.

City of Edwardsville
Spray and Play Park

After the City of Edwardsville received an OSLAD grant from the State of Illinois to help develop
an abandoned site into a Spray and Play Park. FGM was hired to design the resultant $1,900,000
park and splashpad. Focus groups were held with neighborhood residents to identify features
the community wanted to incorporate into the park such as a 3,500 SF splashpad, pavilions that
can be rented for parties, a playground and exercise equipment.
