Shive-Hattery provided design services for the new 20-acre Schmoker neighborhood park and the Fort Dodge Aquatic Center/Rosedale Rapids. The park weaves together neighborhood park amenities such as a playground, shelter, and walking trail with native prairie plantings and wetlands and explores themes of native Iowa landscapes and the agricultural heritage of the site. The aquatic center features a recreation pool, a lap pool with diving well, a lazy river, and multiple water slides. The design of the aquatic center interior features a Midwestern resort theme utilizing native and adapted plantings to create outdoor rooms and provide an interesting and comfortable environment for patrons.
