We’re honored to announce that Earth Systems has received an Honor Award in the 2026 Engineering Excellence Awards from American Council of Engineering Companies of California (ACEC California) for our work on the Watts Skatepark project in Los Angeles!
This recognition celebrates the innovative geotechnical solutions and collaboration that helped bring a community-centered, recreation-focused project to life. The Watts Skatepark is more than a park—in a historically underserved neighborhood, the park offers world-class skating facilities, including features for wheelchair users, adaptive athletes, and skaters of all skill levels—making it one of the most inclusive skateparks in the nation.
Huge thanks to our project partners: California Skateparks, The Skatepark Project, and The City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks. A big kudos to Christopher Allen and the Earth Systems team whose expertise and commitment made this achievement possible.
