Boston Scientific, Maple Grove MN

Local Supplier: Rochester Concrete Products
Structure: Boston Scientific
Project Scope: 13,577 square feet, Recon Limestone
Objective: Install a retaining wall to allow for entry drive

At Boston Scientific, site elevation changes presented a challenge for the construction of a new drive lane. To address this issue, a large-scale retaining wall was designed and installed using Recon Limestone blocks. Spanning 13,577 square feet, this wall provides critical grade separation and creates the necessary support for the drive lane while enhancing the overall functionality and appearance of the site.

The new retaining wall not only supports vehicle access but also creates a long-term, durable solution that requires minimal ongoing maintenance. Using Recon’s large block retaining wall system, the design delivers both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. The natural limestone texture of the blocks blends seamlessly with the surrounding environment, making it a practical and visually pleasing choice for commercial applications like this one.

This project was supplied by Rochester Concrete Products, a trusted local source for high-performance precast materials. Their expertise and reliable inventory helped ensure that construction stayed on schedule and met quality expectations.

By solving grade change challenges and improving site accessibility, the Boston Scientific retaining wall project demonstrates the value of well-engineered precast solutions. It stands as an example of how smart design and durable materials come together to support infrastructure needs for years to come.

Whether it’s for drive lanes, parking areas, or complex commercial sites, Recon retaining walls provide the strength and reliability needed for large-scale applications.
