Y’all are probably getting tired of hearing about this thing, but it’s been my entire life for the past year.

Yeah, I’m pretty proud of what my classmates and I accomplished.

Would be a great place to take pictures of supercars.

+1,000 if you mentioned that your design inspiration was the louvers from the rear window of your step-dad’s 1986 IROC-Z. Congrats, that is beautiful. Mind if I asks what it leads to? Anything in particular or just part of a local/state park?

If they had truck-like ground clearance.

They can get trailered there and just unloaded on that flat gravel bit.

It’s at a YMCA camp, which owns about 900 acres of tallgrass prairie which they are actively trying to preserve:

This is why supercars come with hydraulic front end lifts nowadays.

Me too, I’m still looking for a job.

When you’ve gotta watch out for rocks to avoid smashing the front dif on an F-250, I doubt they’ve got enough lift. lol

Im not going to lie, I’ve seen lots of walls in my day...and this...this is a helluva wall.

Way to go! I saw this earlier and it really is a great design. Keep us posted on these projects. Personally, I love seeing good architecture/design on here.

Thanks, I’m glad you can appreciate it.

that is really cool - it will be stunning once the prairie grass comes back. It’s kind of “modern” Mary J Colter.

Oh yeah, when the grass returns it’ll probably reduce me to tears.

Nice one, well done fella (and co). Looks great.

Certainly looks outstanding in it’s field. Sorry bad joke.

But ye’, does look great.

I think with a platform going to the centre from one side about two thirds of the way up the steps leading forward would make a fantastic luxury barbecue. Oh man I wish I had more money.
