  • Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates
    MICHAEL VAN VALKENBURGH ASSOCIATES THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE FIRM AWARD SUBMITTAL ASLA Board of Trustees c/o Carolyn Mitchell American Society of Landscape Architects 636 Eye St., NW Washington, DC 20001 Re: Nomination of Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates for Firm of the Year Dear Trustees, The list of winners of ASLA’s Landscape Architecture Firm Award is stacked with firms that have produced significant work and made great contributions to our profession. As impressive as it is, however, the list remains glaringly incomplete, as it fails to recognize one of our most accomplished firms: Michael Van Valken- burgh Associates (MVVA). As a collective of talented designers and thinkers, MVVA has produced three decades worth of exceptional, groundbreaking built work, been a leader in promoting innovative responses to environmental challenges, and significantly raised awareness of the important work we do as landscape archi- tects. It is because of this that I enthusiastically nominate MVVA for the Landscape Architecture Firm Award. Michael Van Valkenburgh, FASLA, opened MVVA in 1982. As we all know, he has built a career as one of only a handful of landscape architects with name recognition extending far outside of our profession. His accom- plishments and contributions have been recognized with many awards, including the ASLA Design Medal and induction into the prestigious American Academy of Arts and Sciences. His is the public face for the firm, and the name on the letterhead, but he is far from the only person involved. Van Valkenburgh leads the firm with Laura Solano, ASLA and Matthew Urbanski, ASLA, who have been in- volved in most of the firm’s major projects, along with other principals Paul Seck, ASLA, and Gullivar Shepard, ASLA.

  • Jacob K. Javits Federal Building Plaza Opening Book
    Jacob K. Javits OPENING Federal Building Plaza New York, New York COMMISSIONER’S MESSAGE Great design solves multiple problems. You can witness that fact throughout the public spaces in New York City. The High Line salvaged a meaningful industrial artifact and provided open space for residents and visitors; at Brooklyn Bridge Park, granite pavers serve as kayak launches and protect the shoreline from storm surges; subway stations have been laboratories for both artists and inventors of digital interfaces. The newly reopened plaza at the Jacob K. Javits Federal Building is the latest example of multitasking in New York’s civic realm. Funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act were committed to a much-needed waterproofing of the parking structure directly beneath the plaza. The public servants of GSA advocated for a more user-friendly project, one that could also produce a stunning above-ground renovation with minimal additional expense. The makers of this plaza deserve equal praise. GSA hired WASA/Studio A in collaboration with landscape architecture firm Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates for the plaza redesign, which it accomplished in lush, sweeping gestures. Paying as much attention to plant species as paving patterns, the design team’s meticulous work can be viewed as an extension of Thomas Paine Park’s greenery immediately to the east or as a counterpoint to the Javits building’s rigorous architecture. The new plaza also is an empathetic amenity for New Yorkers. Indeed, different seating types accommodate laptop users and lunch breakers, while also controlling traffic flows and discreetly securing the site. Although you would expect nothing less from the minds behind New York triumphs like Brooklyn Bridge Park, Teardrop Park in Lower Manhattan or Myrtle Hall at Pratt Institute, we are immensely grateful to them for applying that same dedication and insight here.

  • Making the Most of Our Parks
    Making the Most of Our Parks RECREATION EXERCISE RESPITE PLAY ENSURING GREENER, SAFER, CLEANER PARKS, TOGETHER A SUMMARY OF A REPORT BY THE CITIZENS BUDGET COMMISSION AT THE REQUEST OF NEW YORKERS FOR PARKS NEW YORK’S NONPARTISAN VOICE SEPTEMBER 2007 FOR EFFECTIVE GOVERNMENT MAKING THE MOST OF OUR PARKS the challenge to new yorkers Parks play important roles in city life. They are a source of respite from the bustle of the urban environment, a place for active recreation and exercise for adults, and a safe place for children to play outdoors. In addition, parks preserve sensitive environmen- tal areas, and, by making neighborhoods more attractive, enhance property values and the tax base of the city. Given the benefits of urban parks, it should be reassuring to New Yorkers that more than 37,000 acres, or nearly one-fifth the city’s total land area, is parkland. This pro- portion is larger than in most big cities in the United States, suggesting that New Yorkers are well endowed with parks. But New Yorkers face a distinct challenge in enjoying their parks. Their parks must accommodate an unparalleled volume of people. New York has about 217 residents for each acre of parkland, one of the highest ratios in the nation, compared to a national average among large cities of about 55 residents per acre. When the extraordinarily large number of commuters and tourists is added to New York’s resident population, the potential demand on local parks likely is greater than in any other American city. New Yorkers must be especially innovative in order to make the most of their parks.

  • Restoring the Human Element: Lost in the Pursuit
    RESTORING THE HUMAN ELEMENT: LOST IN THE PURSUIT OF PERFORMANCE‐BASED DESIGN by HEATHER RENEE RYAN (Under the Direction of Brian LaHaie) ABSTRACT At the present nexus of technological reverence, ecological concern, and occupational distress, quantification methods and rating systems like LEED and SITES understandably offer landscape architecture a certain validation. However, there is a deeply rooted sense that cultural expression and aesthetic and experiential qualities are integral to the success of the designed landscape, and can hardly be reduced to a 250‐ point scale. Is the importance of the designed landscape being undervalued in this new direction toward a numerical rationale? What now, is the value of the cultural, aesthetic and experiential in landscape architecture, and how can discussions of this nature be reinserted into contemporary sustainability centered design discourse? This thesis will consider the ideas of a number of contemporary practitioners and scholars in the field in an effort to explore possible avenues for future design process and practice.
