Channel Lumber provided materials and services for the installation of an illuminated Ferris wheel in Golden Gate Park. The structure has multiple gondolas, each equipped to house six passengers, and provides sweeping views of San Francisco. Work like this falls under custom projects, backed by one of the largest lumber inventories in California.

Civic installations call for material cut to spec and delivered on schedule. Channel Lumber's custom mill work shapes material to a project's requirements, and our delivery fleet is the largest in the Bay Area.

The Ferris wheel joins a long list of Bay Area projects Channel Lumber has supplied. Our FSC and LEED certified inventory is among the largest in the United States.

A Park With 150 Years Behind It

Golden Gate Park, originally known as Outside Lands, was founded in 1870. Its first official structure was the Conservatory of Flowers, which still stands today. In the aftermath of the 1906 earthquake, the park served as a refugee camp for those displaced by the wreckage. The park is also home to bison, and has been instrumental in saving bison from extinction.

Built for a Landmark Setting

The park hosts 25 million visitors per year. Channel Lumber is an industry leader in civic projects like the Golden Gate Park Ferris wheel.
