SYNLawn St. Louis Constructs Outdoor Entertainment Destination for Westport Plaza
St. Louis, MO — Westport Plaza is the premier business, shopping, dining, and entertainment district in the St. Louis area. Located in the Maryland Heights suburb, the expansive 42-acre, mixed-use property is home to two on-site hotels, a vibrant mix of entertainment and restaurant venues, and over 3,000 business employees.
Lodging Hospitality Management, which owns and operates Westport Plaza, hired PARIC Corporation and SYNLawn St. Louis to transform its underutilized outdoor area by constructing a unique and engaging entertainment destination, known as Westport Park, to host live music shows, movie nights, yoga sessions, lawn games, monthly Parties on the Plaza, and additional events.
Revamping the Outdoor Space with Luxurious Artificial Grass
SYNLawn St. Louis understood the goal of creating an outdoor entertainment attraction to revitalize the development while prioritizing accessibility, inclusivity, safety, and sustainability. The team installed square feet of SYNAugustine X47 to revamp the 10,000-square-foot outdoor space in the center of Westport Plaza with luxurious artificial grass that offers unmatched safety, softness, and durability. SYNAugustine X47’s multi-colored blades and dense thatch create a lush, natural appearance.
SYNLawn St. Louis selected this fire-resistant turf solution to address heightened safety concerns. They also incorporated ADA accessibility features to ensure the space is easily accessible and inclusive for everyone, including those who use wheelchairs or other mobility devices.
SYNAugustine X47 is a more sustainable landscaping option. It is a USDA Certified Bio-Preferred product manufactured with SYNLawn’s exclusive plant-based EnviroLoc+™ Backing System created from renewable resources. Additionally, SYNAugustine X47 is engineered with SYNLawn Biomimetic™ Technology, and Super Yarn™ Technology featuring Sanitized® antimicrobial technology, StatBlock™ antistatic, and DualChill™ IR-reflective properties that ensure long-lasting performance in heavy foot traffic areas.
Additional benefits of using a synthetic turf like SYNAugustine X47 include:
- Less time is needed for maintenance since no watering, mowing, or fertilizing is needed to keep the lawn looking pristine year-round.
- Safe for kids and pets due to not requiring pesticides for lawn care.
- Stays clean after rainy weather so visitors won’t get muddy or dirty.
- Minimizes outdoor allergies.
SYNLawn St. Louis is very proud of their role in creating the new Westport Park green space that attracts visitors with its diverse programming of events and fosters a strong sense of community engagement. Angela Grego, the owner of SYNLawn St. Louis, and her team were recognized for their commitment to excellence in design and community enhancement during the latest annual SYNLawn Conference. The team received a “Best Retail Project” award.
