2014 skyway open

Each Wednesday, we feature a construction story, image or detail drawing from a past or recent project at Wilkus Architects. It’s our goal to generate conversation with these weekly posts so please comment below.

This week, we decided to mix it up a bit. The sketches and images below give you a sneak peek into the hole that we have designed and built for the 2014 Skyway Open Golf Tournament. We had a great team that developed a great design and spent many hours during the construction phase. Everything was done in-house. We can't wait to share and play the hole with everyone! The event gears up this weekend so grab your putters and we'll see you on the links!
