Long Celebrates Recent Bobby Jones Golf Course Renovations

Sep 11, 2020 | Community, News, Projects

The successful grand opening of Boone’s restaurant, located at the newly renovated Bobby Jones Golf Course, took place on September 5. Joe Severin and Shepherd Long, P.E., LEED AP were proud to be there to support the opening on behalf of Long Engineering; the food and atmosphere was great and we thoroughly enjoyed our time spent reconnecting with a few old friends!

Our firm was proud to play a part in the recent Bobby Jones Golf Course renovations. These renovations included a wide range of improvements such as a 9-hole reversible golf course, a structured parking garage with tennis courts on top, a new clubhouse, and a new driving range and practice facility. Long Engineering provided full site design services including stormwater management and NPDES compliance for the entire 144-acre site with close coordination from the City of Atlanta and Georgia EPD for environmentally sensitive areas. Stormwater management measures included a micro-pool stormwater quality feature, bioretention areas, and a rain garden.

With the newly renovated Golf Course and Boone’s restaurant open for business, we encourage you to pay them a visit!

Atlanta Memorial Park Conservancy Consulting

Dec 30, 2016 | Projects

Long Engineering, Inc. was retained by the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management and the Atlanta Memorial Park Conservancy to provide technical input into the city’s approach to reducing sanitary sewer overflows, flooding and stream bank degradation within Peachtree Creek and Tanyard Creek that traverse the Atlanta Memorial Park property, including the Bobby Jones Golf Course.  The Peachtree Creek basin encompasses 94 square miles of urbanized portions of DeKalb County and the City of Atlanta.  This urbanization of time has continually taxed the aging infrastructure carrying sanitary sewer and stormwater through the basin.  LONG’s services included reviewing the city’s evaluation of alternatives to reduce wet weather sanitary sewer overflows within the Peachtree Creek basin, Capital Improvement Program priorities, combined sewer overflow treatment facility operations and basin hydraulic modeling.   The collaborative effort also included interfacing with City Council and the Mayor’s office.
