Introduction The Plan on the right represents the current construction plan for The Children's Farm at Stone Mountain's Plantation.

The documents below represents the earlier designs for reference.

Construction Plan: Children's Farm at Stone Mountain's Plantation

Introduction These several pages represent the current thinking (November 2000) for The Farmyard at the Plantation at Stone Mountain Park.  As a form to exchange information and document the Design Process, we are posting this design work representing  Task 2: Concept Planning.  It includes: Site Context Layout Exhibit Layout Plans Barn Elevations and Sections Outline Specifications Program area take-offs Also included are several "Case Studies" representing animal/visitor management ideas and one representing theming concepts and reference photos. We think that this format is useful for this stage of the planning.  After Review of this document would like to schedule a "Review Presentation" to discuss the current plan and coordinate design schedules. This is a very important milestone which will allow us to proceed into Schematic Design Documents.         KEY A  Plantation Courtyard  B  Main Entry  C  Existing Historic Barn  D  Entry Station #1  E  Demonstration Area  F  Animal Support Barn  G  Barnyard Paddock  H  Feeding Station I  Climbing Structure  J  Contact Yard  K  Resting/Timeout  L  Administrative Center  M  Veterinary Barn/ M1 Iso/Recovery N   Hay Storage Crib O  Service/Manure Handling  P   Entry Station #2 Q  Cotton Gin R  Cook House S  Reptile Homestead T  Main Walkway
