Case study

Museum riverfront — gardens and promenade

A stacked double-tube line was laid along the brick promenade behind the decorative brick seawall and iron railing, running the length of the waterfront. Drone footage in the same folder covers the full alignment from above.

Risk profile
Wind-driven chop and elevated water on an open riverfront pushing over a brick seawall onto a historic garden promenade — where the loss is collections, grounds and public access.

What the photographs show

The site as it stood.

The photographs show rough, wind-driven water breaking against the seawall in whitecaps while the walkway, pergola and turf behind the barrier stay dry. The alignment runs several hundred linear feet. The supplied presentation and Florida Times-Union coverage of a Hurricane Dorian deployment identify Sean Wirth and the crew assembling a temporary flood wall at the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens.

Scope of work

  • Stacked tube line set along the riverfront promenade behind the seawall
  • Alignment run the length of the garden frontage
  • Protection of walkways, pergola and turf behind the line
  • Aerial drone documentation of the completed deployment
  • Wind-driven river water breaking in whitecaps against a brick seawall below a barrier line
    Water breaking over the seawall — the reason the line was set where it was.
