A landscape architect-led team transformed Lincoln Park into a functional and accessible recreational space that is in harmony with its changing environment while telling the story of its rich past. Improvements focused on providing accessibility with new and renovated trails, improving water quality through a range of best management practices, diversifying recreational opportunities, and enhancing habitat services with native plantings and pollinator-friendly plantings, all within the site’s rich ecological and historical context. The park serves as a model for how resiliency can be integrated into our landscapes through design, reconnecting the creek and community to this beloved place.
