The Jury felt this project is a compelling refinement of the historical Olmsted legacy, displaying a thoughtful, simple, and poetic design that continues the picturesque aesthetics. Maintains respect for original design while adapting to community needs and ecological health, using clear and practical action items. Utilizes beautiful representations and graphics to support the analysis and community feedback through the implementation.
