At its biennial awards dinner on Thursday, December 10, at the Salvation Cafe in Newport, the Rhode Island Chapter of the America Society of Landscape Architects presented an Honor Award to L+A Landscape Architecture for their comprehensive plan for the urban pathway, CITY WALK, in Providence.
The RI ASLA Honor Award citation described the award winning project:
“CITY WALK is a network of connected urban landscape spaces enhancing the everyday life of the city. In 2014, a landscape architecture study for this 7.8 mile route culminated seven years of advocacy to incorporate CITY WALK into municipal and neighborhood planning, which it has successfully accomplished. Two principles guide the ambition of CITY WALK: connect eight Providence neighborhoods via a network of pedestrian paces/bicycle routes and improve equitable access to urban assets.
Accepting the award for Ron Henderson, Principal of L+A Landscape Architecture, were Phoebe Blake, for CITY WALK, and Katherine Dana, for L+A.
