EXPERIENCE <br />MARSH PARK <br />The landscape design is based on Southern California sustainable landscape <br />principles of water conservation, increased biodiversity, storm water capture, <br />filtration and recharge. <br />Marsh Park is a 3.9 acre open space adjacent to the LA River and thriving Elysian <br />Valley River bike trail. While at Melendrez (RELM), Duane Border led the design <br />effort with the firm's planning team and the Santa Monica Mountain Conservancy <br />to re -imagine a brownfield that disconnected the neighborhood from the LA River. <br />The project has successfully engaged residents and visitors with the wonder of the <br />natural environment through engaging teaching and recreational opportunities. <br />Most importantly, the park acts as a conduit for local Angelenos to access the <br />LA River while utilizing planting and site design to filter and recharge storm water <br />prior to its connection to the LA River, <br />LOCATION <br />Los Angeles, CA <br />CLIENT <br />Santa Monica Mountains <br />Conservancy <br />YEAR <br />Completed 2015 <br />SCOPE <br />Schematic Design <br />Design Development <br />Construction Documentation <br />Construction Administration <br />AWARDS <br />2016 Honor Award <br />ASLA Southern California <br />* Completed prior to BORDER <br />EEF=R Santa Ana Zoo Community Hub Building RFP <br />LOC SANTA ANA ZOO So0q Am - M <br />10 <br />Architects COMMUNITY HUB BUILIDNG "THE HIVE" RFP <br />March 23, 2023 <br />
