Mercer Mass Timber, MMT, announced its role in the design and fabrication of Alabama’s largest mass timber project—the new Cheaha State Park Lodge in Delta, Alabama. “The 26,000-square-foot lodge exemplifies how material innovation can honor place, heritage, and ecology through modern mass timber construction,” MMT said. The new Cheaha State Park Lodge was manufactured by Mercer Mass Timber in Conway, AR using FSC-certified, locally sourced Southern Yellow Pine from within Alabama. …Designed by Chambless King Architects for the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, the lodge draws inspiration from the park’s original 1930s-era stone structures, built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the New Deal. “Throughout, the architecture invites visitors to reconnect with nature through the tactility and warmth of exposed wood, and a biophilic design approach that intersects forest and structure,” MMT shared. …Cheaha State Park Lodge is set for completion in early 2026.
