Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.
(Bass Pro at the Pyramid, Memphis, TN – Special Projects)
What does one do with a mothballed 20,142 seat arena with four walls and no roof on the banks of the Wolf River harbor where the western boundary of the property is the Mississippi River floodwall? It’s redeveloped into the largest Bass Pro Shop in the nation. Kimley-Horn was selected by the project manager, O.T. Marshall Architects to provide traffic and parking studies, site civil engineering, and utility relocation design services for the repurposing of the 48-acre Memphis Pyramid from a multipurpose arena to the world’s largest Bass Pro store.
