Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital Wellness Trail

Farnsworth Group assisted Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital in the design and implementation of a Wellness Trail on their environmentally sensitive campus in Lincoln, Illinois.
The Farnsworth Group design team initially developed an overall master plan for the campus that outlined nearly two miles of future sidewalks and trailways.

Next, an in-house multi-disciplinary team of landscape architects, civil, structural, and electrical engineers developed detailed construction documents for almost three-quarters of a mile of Phase 1 trailway.

Phase 1 includes three boardwalk crossings, which sensitively traverse natural wetland areas, allowing staff and visitors to get close to these environmental assets. This phase also includes a signature lake overlook, along with the eastern portion of the wellness trail being designed 10-foot wide to tie into an eventual Citywide bicycle network.
