  • Jiading Park | ASLA 2020 Professional Awards
    https://www.asla.org/2020awards/655.html
    A 3.2 linear kilometer naturalized canal forms the backbone of the park. Here, wetlands improve water quality and support riparian habitats. Pockets of dense green cover, some inaccessible to humans, create refuge for wildlife.
  • Peat/Land: Strategies for Restoration, Design, and Planning of North ...
    https://www.asla.org/2020studentawards/1013.html
    This project explored the unique ecological, historical, and cultural role of peatland in North Carolina, and examined restoration and design strategies for these sensitive landscapes.
