Weisz + Yoes worked on the redevelopment of the Bosque, Playground, and Lawn for the Battery Conservancy with landscape architects Saratoga Associates and Dutch garden designer Piet Oudolf. This collaborative design approach created a series of public spaces and designs that bring a contemporary sensibility to a historic park in great need of upgrade.
Weisz + Yoes was responsible for the architectural features of the new design, including a spiral-shaped water feature based on the spiral of Archimedes, custom-designed kiosks, and beches with and without back supports. The project also involved a pedestrian circulation study. The kiosks have been approved and lauded by the Art Commission as being elegant and modern additions to park architecture in the city. |
