Bakers Field Master Plan

Port Huron Township, MI

 

Manning Design was retained in 2007 to develop a Master Plan for a 58 acre undeveloped site along the Black River.  Bakers Field, Michigan's first licensed airport, was built in 1938 and closed in 1976.  Port Huron Township acquired the property in 2003 with the intention of developing it into a park. 

 

Marlies Manning guided the township in developing a program for Bakers Field and to build consensus between the public, the adjacent neighborhood, municipal offices, and private clubs as to the future use of the park. 

 

Manning Design crafted a Master Plan which includes nature trails, disc golf, picnic areas, a small boat launch, fishing access sites, and paved walking trails.

 

Manning Design, LLC was hired in 2008 to prepare a Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund grant application for Phase 1 development.
