Design Story: Optima Rooftop
The Optima Rooftop Project is a 12,000 square foot design we recently installed on the roof of the Optima Biltmore Towers. Located near 24th St. and Camelback Road, this urban utopia is near many activities and conveniences of city life, including exclusive shopping and other conveniences.
This rooftop nirvana is above 230 condominiums on seventeen floors, so guests will have amazing views of downtown Phoenix, as well as a seating area and swimming pool where they can lounge and enjoy the view of the lush green belt areas. While we’ve done rooftop installations in the past, this one was unique. The roof, itself, was previously a green roof with very soft soil, so we had some installation challenges. We had to find a way to fasten and secure the edges of the turf without creating additional weight. Our brave crew was, at times, outside the perimeter wall, so they had to be attached to the buildings with safety harnesses while they performed the turf installation.
While there were other crews we had to work with and around, we finished the project under the ten-day deadline, making it possible for rooftop visitors to not only enjoy the sunset in the seating area or at the barbecue space but also enjoy our very own Kentucky bluegrass.
This project is a testament to working under adverse conditions to provide a quality result that is the rooftop equivalent of a city park up in Paradise.
