Project: Meridian Gateway Designer: Phil Graham Designer: Hunter Booth Company: Phil Graham & Company
Scope of the project was to provide a distinct, unique visual appearance. It incorporates architectural elements and lighting for motorists entering and exiting the Meridian Gateway urban corridor from a commuter highway into a core urban area. Initial concepts required lighting integrated into nautical architectural elements, to effectively deploy vehicular commuters from highway to this mixed-use corridor, which includes a pedestrian trail with entertainment and sports complexes, residential, retail and urban core area.

Slide #5 - Pedestrian trail lighting values achieved are 2.3 Aver, 4.9 Max, .96 Min, 2.4 aver/Min, 5.1Max/Min.

Slide #1
|
Slide #6 - Pedestrian trail Nighttime view.
|
Slide #2 - Wave arm, “ship’s mast and rigging gantry” pole mirror adjacent harbor traffic and cruise port. Wave motif reflects in walkways lighting, landscape berm and planters, area parking structure and Gateway lighting.
Developed concepts show an integrated lighting system for roadway and pedestrian trail. Roadway lighting standards include 35’ mounting heights with glare-free 250W metal halide roadway fixtures and pedestrian trail lighting with 150W MH indirect elements at 11ft.

Slide #7 - Pedestrian trail Nighttime view.
|
Slide #3 - Roadway fixtures use high-performance, specular, segmented reflector concealed within narrow 17’ arm. Type III distribution with a full-cut-off classification was achieved. Giving the reflector an internal 20 tilt yielded performance roadway lighting values that surpassed design requirements at 1.6Aver, 4.8Max, 0.5Min, 3.7Aver/Min.
|
Slide #8 - Nighttime view of roadway and pedestrian trail. The entire project was completed within budget.
|
Slide #4 - Second fixture/pole with Wave Arm illuminates recreational trail next to roadway using indirect lighting. Energy efficient, 150W T-6, CMH lamp in a tight-beam reflector uplight mounted at 11’ is used.
|
Slide #9 - Nighttime view of roadway and pedestrian trail. The entire project was completed within budget.
