Chicago Highlands Golf Club, Westchester, Illinois CGL provided surveying and engineering consulting services for the 270 acre 18-hole championship golf course. The course is being constructed over the former 31st Street Landfill. A challenge to the design and construction phasing was identifying the methane gas extraction network throughout the site. Accurate surveying of several hundred gas wells and lines was critical to grading design and the course routing plan. In order to provide visual screening and noise abatement from the adjacent Interstate 294, a massive berm with natural grass plantings was designed along the west perimeter of the course. When completed in 2009, the facility will include a large practice area, clubhouse, tennis & pool facilities and over 70 acres of restored prairie.
