Located just steps from one another, the French Market and New Orleans Jazz Museum sit among the landmarks that make the French Quarter and its surroundings so special. At the French Market, landscape improvements create inviting places for visitors to pause and enjoy the atmosphere, while the Jazz Museum project is bringing an improved venue to life for future performances and community gatherings.
 
 
We’re proud to contribute to these meaningful spaces that connect people with the history, culture, and vibrant traditions of New Orleans.

Over the next 7 months, we’ll be hitting the field to inspect over 1,200 trees planted across New Orleans through the USDA Forestry Grant. After nonprofit partners have planted and cared for these trees for a year, we’ll evaluate each one for health, survival, structure, and establishment using ArcGIS Field Maps. Trees that pass inspection will officially be turned over to the City of New Orleans for long-term ownership and maintenance.
 
Every healthy tree is a step toward a stronger, more resilient, and more connected urban tree canopy!

We are proud to have contributed to the design of the G.I.F.T. (Green Infrastructure in Tremé) and Tremé Flow projects, two community-driven green infrastructure sites created to help address stormwater management and flooding in New Orleans.

Following a recent ribbon cutting ceremony, these spaces are now open to the public — demonstrating how thoughtful landscape design can transform infrastructure into meaningful, functional community spaces. Together, the projects capture and manage more than 60,000 gallons of stormwater during each storm event, while incorporating nature-based solutions including detention, bioretention cells, bioswales, and permeable pavement.

Reimagining 5th Street in Gretna as a corridor designed for people, not just vehicles. 
 
As part of the revitalization project, we focused on creating a more pedestrian-centered experience through planted medians, safer crosswalks, improved sidewalks, on-street parking, intentional planting design, green infrastructure to better manage stormwater. Together, these improvements create a safer, more inviting, and more resilient 5th Street for the Gretna community.

We’re excited to announce that the splash pad at the Cut-off Recreation Center in New Orleans is officially open! We’re proud to have designed this safe, engaging, and inclusive space where children and families can cool off, stay active, and create lasting memories together.
