Achva Stein, FASLA, will receive the Community Service Award. Currently the director of the Landscape Architecture Program at the City College of New York, Stein regularly extends her work and that of her students into needy communities that cannot afford professional landscape architecture services. Throughout her career, Stein has created dozens of pro bono projects around the country – more than 20 in New York City alone. Her master plans, community gardens, streetscape designs and technical assistance help revitalize struggling communities and showcase the positive benefits of landscape architecture.
