About the Project:
The Project sets a standard for reimagining a neglected, contaminated site into a community-driven design and successful waterfront park. The project celebrates the role of landscape architects in leading a collaborative multi-disciplinary team in promoting nature-based, sustainable, and resilient waterfront design in the face of climate change and future sea level rise.
