Project Summary:
Crawford Company designed, fabricated, and installed 800 feet of railing along Davenport's new River Heritage Park. The railing incorporated the historic Arsenal Bridge design into the railing.

About River Heritage Park: 
Davenport's new park sits on the site of one of the area's most notable historical landmarks. The site's history includes: the western side of the first Mississippi River railroad bridge, where the treaty ending the Black Hawk War was signed, how Robert E. Lee surveyed the river's rapids, and Abraham Lincoln's involvement in the Effie Afton incident. In addition to the 800-ft. of railing, the park includes the new Rotary Gazebo. The park sits on a 7-acre green space just up river of the Arsenal Bridge. The park is accessed off of River Drive between 3rd and 4th Streets.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING

Jeff just left and I thank you for sending him over. He is very friendly and helpful. He even went the extra mile and looked at two other vents and put a bead of caulk on them (going the extra mile). Again, I really do appreciate the friendly and helpful employees at Crawford. I thank you (Brian Bausch) again for getting back to me whenever I had a question on something. No matter if it was during your work day or in the evening after cutting your lawn, you made yourself available. Please let each of your employees that have done work at our home know that we appreciate them and keep doing what they are doing.
