The Boathouse Marsh is a waterfront access park planned for Columbia's Baker Athletic Complex and a companion project to the development of the Campbell Sports Center.
Due to the development of the Sports Center being located on land with waterfront access, Columbia must incorporate some form of public access to that waterfront. As such, the project is being built in conjunction with the development of a waterfront access park at the end of 218th street in the clump of trees between the southwest corner of Lawrence A. Wien Stadium and the boathouses.
The project is being designed by James Corner Field Operations, a landscape firm perhaps best known for their collaboration on the development of the acclaimed High Line Park.
