Landscape architects present in-progress park projects which deck over major roadways and evaluate their reparative potential for communities and the urban public realm.
Following an introduction to the structural considerations of deck bridges by engineer Nat Oppenheimer of TYLin, landscape architects Mary Margaret Jones (Hargreaves Jones) and Chuck McDaniel (SWA Group) will present on their firms’ in-progress highway capping projects across the country, followed by a panel discussion and audience Q&A moderated by Juan Camilo Osorio, professor at Pratt Institute’s Graduate Center for Planning and the Environment.
