Scenes from the Anderson Plaza groundbreaking in downtown New Rochelle, NY last week! Starr Whitehouse is working with the City of New Rochelle, L+M Development Partners and Wilder Balter to redesign the downtown street and urban plaza, reconfiguring and regrading the street so that it can be temporarily pedestrianized and support community programs. By bringing nature into the city and creating welcoming social spaces, the Anderson Plaza design will make downtown New Rochelle more healthy, inclusive, and livable.

Check out these views of Marsha P Johnson State Park in construction! It's a great time of year to visit for a waterfront stroll or picnic if you're in the area. The Williamsburg park is named in honor of Marsha P Johnson, who was an activist and pioneer of the LGBTQ+ civil rights movement. Commemoration is conceived as a journey from an entry gate that welcomes people of all backgrounds to Marsha’s park, "a place on the river to be who you are." Flowering trees, perennials, and wetland gardens commemorate Marsha’s love of flowers, concluding with a mosaic overlook that reflects on Marsha’s life and the lives of other transgender women who were murdered.

We love this photo from the Pride Parade at the Public Square this past weekend! 🏳️‍🌈

Starr Whitehouse is excited to be working with Friends of the Public Square Hudson (FOPS) on the renovation of Hudson's Public Square. The Public Square has long played an integral role in Hudson’s public realm, dating back to the early 19th century. It is also our firm’s neighborhood park, located only 500 feet from our office at 553 Warren Street! We presented our first design concepts at a community meeting last Friday. Stay tuned for more project updates!
