Please describe the project specifications

The City of Mesa, Arizona reached out, requesting a shaded waiting area for visitors of Gene Autry Park waiting to play pickleball and/or tennis. The installation of five (5) 10'x20' center leg GORILLABrellas between the courts was a strategic solution. By strategically placing these umbrellas in between the courts, visitors could now wait and prep for their games in an area that provided relief from the intense heat. This enhancement not only improved the overall experience for patrons but also demonstrated the City of Mesa's commitment to ensuring visitor comfort and satisfaction, even in challenging weather conditions. The addition of shade structures between the courts not only addressed the immediate need for sun protection but also showcased a proactive approach to creating a more hospitable and enjoyable environment for all park visitors.
