The Location:

Located in Maryville, Leon Williams Contractors, LLC worked as a part of a joint effort between the city of Maryville, the Maryville-Alcoa-Blount County Parks and Recreation Commission and community leadership in Blount County.

The Specifications:

The Maryville Dog Park at Pistol Creek is located adjacent to the McCammon Avenue and McGhee Street greenbelt entrance in Maryville. Open from dawn to dusk, the area includes one acre for large dogs and a separate half-acre for smaller dogs.

The spaces in the Maryville Dog Park are fenced and feature entry corrals that are double-gated, which allows dogs to be taken off leashes before entering the park. Also included within the space are a pavilion, benches, animal waste stations and water fountains exclusively for dogs.

The Results:

In an interview with the Daily Times, Jordan Blankenship, supervisor and project and construction manager at Leon Williams Contractors, said the project took about two-and-a-half months and the biggest challenge was the weather.

“It was fun talking to the public and hearing what they wanted to see in the park,” he said. “One lady asked when Maryville was getting a cat park.”

The park was made possible by a grant from Radio Systems Corporation and was offered through the Legacy Parks Foundation. For more information about the Maryville Dog Park at Pistol Creek, including rules of use, visit http://www.parksrec.comor call 865-983-9244.
