Saugus, MA – Allen & Major Associates, Inc. (A&M) in partnership with WS Development has completed site design engineering and permitting for an 119,741sf Walmart Supercenter on Route 1 in Saugus.
The store is currently under construction at 770 Broadway (Route 1 Northbound). The Walmart project is part of an overall 17-acre site development plan. The store, which will feature both general merchandise and groceries, will be a first of its kind design.
The store is being constructed as an elevated structure placed on concrete pillars allowing for below-grade parking. The unique design will allow for a larger buffer zone to the surrounding wetlands on the site. A&M worked extensively with the Town of Saugus Conservation Commission to preserve the existing wetlands and provided over 30,000sf of wetland replication to support any and all wildlife that would naturally inhabit the site. A&M also provided landscape architecture and land surveying services including easement and title consultation, existing conditions plans, off-site water line survey and survey of the off-site acceleration/deceleration lanes on Route 1.
