Central Park is a New York City landmark unlike any other. Since I grew up in New York City, I can tell you that when you walk through the park for just a few minutes, you’ll forget that you’re in a city of over 8 million people. There are so many hidden treasures and features that go under appreciated. One of the main things that goes unnoticed are the park benches.

If you can imagine, when you have literally thousands of people sitting on a bench on a given day, it’s important to use a material that will:

• Stand the test of time
• Withstand bitter cold winters along with hot and humid summers
• Be resilient in the face of heavy use

Is it any wonder that the City of New York chose ipe wood for their park benches?

Ipe Decking Can Be Used for Areas That Receive A Lot of Traffic like the Treasure Island Resort in Las Vegas

When you consider that ipe has been scientifically proven to be an enduring hardwood, it also makes good financial sense. After all, imagine the cost of having to maintain, repair, and replace lesser grade materials. Clearly, when you consider both return on investment and its features, using ipe decking was definitely the smart choice.

Did you know that it was Advantage Trim & Lumber that supplied the ipe for this massive project? Yes, we are proud to offer commercial projects, developers, and lumber yards wholesale ipe decking.
