As part of the team responsible for the restoration of Bryant Park our firm helped to implement the landscape design created by the Olin Partnership. Along with Hardy Holzman & Pfeiffer (who designed the restaurant and kiosks) and Davis & Brody (architects for the underground library stacks) our task was to restore the historic architectural fabric including park buildings, statuary (including the William Cullen Bryant Memorial), bronze and ironworks as well as the signature fountain. A result of a partnership between the NYC Parks and a nonprofit BID (business improvement district) Bryant Park is now a model for urban redevelopment across the country.
