Watersteps at North Shore Riverfront Park

Project

Natural sandstone blocks and flooring, quarried in Butler, PA, were used to create this stunning water feature on the North Shore of Pittsburgh.

The sandstone was arranged in a specific pattern to allow the water to flow over the blocks and also to create pools for wading. The durable sandstone paving material provides a non-slip walking surface in the pools.
