GK Engineers provided electrical engineering for the relocation of the Memorial Park Tennis Center, moved to make room for the Memorial Park Golf Course redevelopment that brought the PGA Tour back to the park. GK worked for Texas Sports & Civil Engineering, with the Astros Golf Foundation managing the project for the City of Houston.

The existing 1,200A, 480V service to the park complex was reused, with new distribution extended to a weatherproof panelboard serving all site loads. Eight high-mast poles carry LED sports lighting designed to a minimum of 50 footcandles on every court, with scheduled and manual control, plus ball machine receptacles along the fencing and LED canopy lighting over the spectator seating.

Design ran from August to October 2020, and the City of Houston’s electronic permit review cleared in days that September. GK continued through construction administration under a separate agreement with the foundation.
