Concrete built to a 1958 master plan
Research Triangle Park's roads, access paths, and building pads followed a formal master plan that landscape architect Lewis Clarke completed in 1958, a year before the park's first five companies arrived. That planned layout means concrete infrastructure near RTP was engineered from the outset, unlike the informal, grown-over-decades street grids in Durham's older towns.
Driveways and pads on Piedmont clay, engineered from day one
RTP still sits on the same red Cecil clay found across the Durham County Piedmont, but because the park was built to a single 1958 plan rather than growing piecemeal, drainage and grading were addressed as part of the original design. Concrete work here can generally build on that engineered base rather than correcting decades of informal grading.
