BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK 2
I have had the good fortune of touring the site prior to its opening - see my previous post. Have also attending lectures by Michael Van Valkenburg, Matthew Urbanski, and spoke with other senior people at MVVAssociates on the making of the Brooklyn Bridge Park. All of which have added to my understanding of the many layers of design to create this space. As a native NewYorker with a Brooklyn birthright I am openly and honestly biased, but... still truly believe this will one day be looked upon by future generations with the same or greater admiration and respect that Olmsted and Vauxs Central + Prospect Park has to our generation.

Phoenix Park Wolverhampton
Phoenix Park, in Wolverhampton, was given a new lease of life by my former colleagues at Pincke’s Leamington Studio. It’s just a really good little scheme and for me strikes a nice balance between traditional park, and some more contemporary features. Definitely worth a visit.
