Eau Claire Plaza
Calgary, AB - Eau Claire Plaza is a 4-acre public plaza abutting the scenic Bow River in the heart of downtown Calgary. Landscape architecture firm DIALOG Design brought on BRV in 2018 to assist in redesigning the plaza for their client, the City of Calgary.

The programming vision for the space celebrated Calgarians’ zest for winter activity and supported the plaza’s role as a transition zone between the scenic natural setting to the north and the bustling urban core to its south. Finally, BRV assisted with public engagement workshops to help shepherd the plaza redesign through the development process.

Downtown Tempe Master Plan
Tempe, AZ - BRV worked with the Downtown Tempe Association (DTA) to create a comprehensive strategy to improve the public spaces and streetscapes of Downtown Tempe. Initially, the DTA sought to bring life back to Tempe Beach Park; but, as the project developed, BRV discovered a city saddled by underused and unrealized public spaces. BRV found multiple smaller-scale public spaces that could improve the quality of life much more drastically with thoughtful, small, and inexpensive changes.
Culminating in a final report of recommendations, BRV developed programming concepts fora network of ten underused public spaces, created operating budgets for each of these spaces, established long-term redevelopment goals for streetscapes and pre-existing community centers, and advised on the phasing strategy for all improvements.

I-59/20 Underpass Park
Birmingham, AL - Working with the State of Alabama, the City of Birmingham, and ALDOT, BRV collaboratively shaped a new plan to transform underutilized space underneath I-59/20. The highway cuts right through Birmingham's downtown, cutting key cultural and educational institutions off from surrounding neighborhoods. To ameliorate these conditions, BRV worked closely with the architecture team to create a highly-programmed park with distinct activities, uses, and amenities available throughout the linear public space.

Grand Park
Los Angeles, CA - BRV, as part of a team including the Related Companies, authored a 2005 plan to create a new world-class park in downtown Los Angeles, a key component of a multibillion-dollar redevelopment of the Grand Avenue corridor. That park, now named Grand Park, opened in 2012.
Exposition Park
Los Angeles, CA - BRV was selected in early 2017, on a team led by Torti Gallas and Partners, to create a new master plan for Exposition Park, a historic park in South Los Angeles.
The 160-acre park, with its collection of museums (including the forthcoming Lucas Museum of Narrative Art), cultural institutions, and sports venues, is an important landmark for Los Angeles and an asset to the community. BRV’s work emphized Exposition Park’s significance in the neighborhood by highlighting and commenting on its myriad activities - small and large - and advising on ways the park’s many institutions could work together on a cohesive programming plan.
BRV also advised on potential land use concepts, management and governance plans, and revenue generation strategies for the park.
Bryant Park
New York, NY - BRV oversaw the turnaround of a park dominated by drug dealers and other criminals into the most vibrant park in New York City. Winner of over two dozen design and management awards and cited in numerous books and articles as one of the world’s best urban parks, Bryant Park is a huge success from both a design and financial viewpoint. The park created over $3 billion of value for its abutting real estate owners and serves as an international model in placemaking, urban redevelopment, and public space management.

Riverfront Revitalization Project
Omaha, NE and Council Bluffs, IA - BRV, with a master planning team led by the Office of James Burnett landscape architects, was hired to consult on the programming, operations, and funding strategies as part of an overall master plan to reinvigorate roughly 180 acres of public space along the riverfront in Omaha, Nebraska and Council Bluffs, Iowa.
The master plan’s proposals would clean up contaminated land, restore wetlands, and activate underutilized space throughout both sides of the river with aquatic uses, outdoor recreation, environmental education, and other programming.
Along with programming and operations, BRV assisted with the development of a governance structure between the two cities, funding strategies for capital improvements, and expense and revenue budgets for the long-term sustainability of the new park.

MIT East Campus
Cambridge, MA - Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) hired BRV to help complete their vision for the East Campus Plan, a project to build a mixed-use development and public realm to serve both the institute and surrounding community. BRV participated in guiding both the design and the community outreach process, ensuring that the voices and wishes of local stakeholders guided the overall development design. BRV advised the design team—composed of architects, landscape architects, and engineers—and assisted MIT in obtaining necessary entitlements and permits.
For this effort, BRV drafted a programming plan that integrated MIT-specific activities with public-minded leisure programs to create a proposed schedule of programming that will bring students, professionals, faculty, and visitors together on the campus. BRV interviewed and collaborated with multiple MIT departments to devise concepts for inventive programs that feature the innovative research at the institute. Following this, BRV delivered a comprehensive program plan that provided a roadmap for the future operations of the public realm.
In 2017, BRV devised a pilot for this programming plan to be implemented throughout the current MIT campus.
