Proposal for
Cultural Arts Corridor
Fayetteville, Arkansas
Professional Landscape Architecture Services:
Phase Three - Construction Documentation
Bidding and Negotiation
Phase Four - Construction and Administration
(Scope Area A Only)
310 East Market Street. Charlottesville, VA 22902 • T 434.984.1358 / F 434.984.4158 • www,nbwla.com
Project Understanding
There are two Primary Scope Areas and four Design Phases of the Cultural Arts Corridor (CAC).
Primary Scope Areas:
Scope Area A
• The Fay Jones Woods
• The Razorback Regional Greenway Improvements
• Cultural Arts Corridor Streetscape Enhancements
Scope Area B, the West Avenue Civic Space, is not included in this scope of work. See Appendix B for
Scope Area/Extents of Design.
Design Phases:
Phase 1 - Schematic Design
Phase 2 - Design Development
Phase 3 - Construction Documentation, Bidding & Negotiation
Phase 4 - Construction Administration
The following scope of work and fees are for Phase 3 and 4 design work for Scope Area A only. It builds
upon work completed during Phases 1 and 2 (Schematic Design and Design Development). The
Schematic Design, including its illustrative package and estimated construction cost served as the basis
for inclusion in a bond referendum administered by the City of Fayetteville (CoF) to fund the proposed
improvements. This bond referendum was passed by Fayetteville voters on April 9, 2019.
Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects (NBW) will continue act as prime consultant and project lead of
the design team during Phases 3 and 4 Construction Documentation Bidding and Negotiation, and
Construction Administration, respectively. The following proposal is intended to clearly describe the
scope elements provided by NBW and those that will be provided by sub -consultants. As prime
consultant, NBW will coordinate all sub -consultants and collect and submit design packages and billing
directly to the CoF.
The current proposal provides design services for the design and construction of the scope documented
in the 100% Design Development drawings to be submitted to the City of Fayetteville on September 20,
2019. Following review of the 100% Design Development documents and cost estimate, some value
engineering (VE) options may be exercised to keep the project within the working construction budget.
Should those VE decisions alter the design scope in ways that reduce the time and effort necessary for
the design team, CoF reserves the right to renegotiate design fees downward to equitably reflect those
changes. Design work will not begin until authorized by the City.
Sub -consultants will be drawn from the following list, also included in the Letter Agreement:
1) Flintlock, LTD - Landscape Architect
2) Nitsch Engineering - Civil Engineering
3) Olsson Associates - Water / Sewer, Civil / Geotechnical / Structural Engineering, Soils
Consulting, Surveying
4) Rico Associates - Specifications Writer
5) Hines, Inc. - Irrigation consultant*
6) HSA Engineering - MEP Engineer
7) Tillett Lighting - Lighting Design
*These services provided by Jim Davis, previously of Landtech, now with Hines, Inc.

• Civil and Structural observation fees are estimated based on performing construction observation
on a targeted basis for a 14 -month construction contract time. The civil and structural observation
proposed fee is based on the equivalent of 4 hours per day, 5 days per week, during 4 -months of
street construction time and 2 hours per day, 5 days per week, during 4 -months of estimated
concurrent street, water, and sewer construction. Observation fees during concurrent 4 -month water
and sewer construction time are estimated to be split 50/50.
• For the remaining project construction occurring beyond the street construction period, a maximum
of (14) inspections are assumed. Additional inspections or visits requested by the city would be
considered an additional service.
• If the Owner directs the Engineer to decrease the time or frequency of observation, the fee will
decrease according to the Engineer's standard hourly rates. If construction time extends beyond
the time established in this agreement or the Owner wishes to increase the time or frequency of
observation, the Engineer will be compensated an additional fee agreed to by the Owner and
Engineer.
Scope Area A: Testing
Olsson will follow the City of Fayetteville's guidelines of standards and specifications for
construction materials testing. This will include testing for soils, aggregate, concrete and
asphalt. Olsson's budget for this project is $20,000.00 TMNTE. However, any additional testing
requested will be classified as additional services and that will be based on time and materials.

role remains TBD per discussion w/CoF and is dependent on construction contract structure.
• The project design is limited to the project boundary articulated as Scope Area A in Appendix B.
• Currently, we do not anticipate architecture or fountain systems within the Scope Area A project
design scope or budget.
Additional Services
• We anticipate that every visit to Fayetteville will be focused on meetings with the City,with the design
team, and with stakeholders.To the extent that we can make other additional meetings fit within the
travel as outlined, we will. If additional public meetings or presentations are necessary, we will
coordinate with the CoF to determine if it should be considered an Additional Service.

Assumptions
• The proposed design fee is based on the anticipated schedule and staffing indicated in this
proposal. Should the scope change, we will work with the City of Fayetteville to adjust our schedule,
staffing, and fee accordingly.
• NBW will not serve as construction project manager, nor facilitate overall construction project
communication or schedule, maintain project records,or prepare change orders.This coordinating
role remains TBD per discussion w/City of Fayetteville and is dependent on construction contract
structure.
• The project design is limited to the project boundary in Appendix B.
• Currently,we do not anticipate significant architecture or fountain systems within the Scope Area A
project design scope or budget.
• Specific streets to be developed further in DD include those as illustrated in Appendix B.
• Other streets may require further study dependent on the development of the project design and
budget. NBW will work with the City to ascertain whether modifications to these assumptions
represent Additional Services.
• The City of Fayetteville will lead the rezoning/re-parceling effort for the West Avenue Parking Lot.
Design team will undertake the Large-Scale Redevelopment process and Streetscapes approval
process with the City and Planning Commission.
• NBW will provide base information and design overview of the Schematic Design to Developer-
Architect teams for Scope Area B Civic Space structures.Should additional design time or
coordination be required, it may be considered an Additional Service.
Additional Services
We anticipate that every visit to Fayetteville will be focused on meetings with the City,with the
design team,and with stakeholders.To the extent that we can make other additional meetings fit
within the travel as outlined, we will. If additional public meetings or presentations are necessary,we
will coordinate with the CoF to determine if it should be considered an Additional Service.
• Travel time,time on site, and expenses are specified and included in the proposed fees.Additional
trips requested by the client will be considered an Additional Service.
• Additional Services will be billed at the rates provided below.Travel is billed at 1/2 time. Expenses will
be billed at cost and as per CoF policy.
• NBW will not be responsible for obtaining permits for removal of any wetland areas in the project
site. Should this become a requirement due to the project design,the design team and Client Group
will evaluate the time and documentation required and whether it requires additional services.

Project Understanding
There are four projects in the Cultural Arts Corridor(CAC)that form the project scope.They are:
• The Fay Jones Parkland
• The West Avenue and Dickson St.Plaza
• The Razorback Regional Greenway Improvements
• Cultural Arts Corridor Streetscape Enhancements
(See Appendix B for Scope Area/Extents of Design)
The following scope of work and associated fees only includes the Schematic Design (SD) phase.
Additional scope articulated in this Appendix, Design Development (DD)through Bidding and
Negotiation (BN)is estimated and will be updated at the end of the SD phase.We understand that
these services are to correspond to the design excellence program grant from the Walton Family
Foundation-see Appendix C for more information on the grant.This strategy,developed in
coordination with City of Fayetteville staff,will allow flexibility to adapt the subsequent design phases to
the emerging design,anticipated project budgets,and project phasing.
NBW will act as project lead of the design team for all projected phases of the project:Schematic
Design (SD), Design Development(DD),Construction Documentation (CD) and Bidding and
Negotiation(BN)and Construction Administration.-The following proposal is intended to clearly
describe the scope elements provided by NBW and those that will be provided by sub-consultants.
NBW will serve as prime consultant,organizing and leading the design team.As prime consultant,
NBW will coordinate all sub-consultants and collect and submit design packages and billing directly to
the City of Fayetteville.
Sub-consultants will be drawn from the following list,also included in the Letter Agreement:
a. Flintlock,LTD-Landscape Architect
b. Nitsch Engineering-Civil Engineering
c. Olsson Associates-Civil Engineering,Soil Science,Surveying,Traffic,Geotechnical
d. Marty Matlock-Ecological Engineering
e. Rico Associates-Specifications Writer
f. HSA Engineering-MEP Engineer
g. InVeritas-Community Engagement
h. Pentagram-Identity and Graphics
i. Scott Eiehle-irrigation and landscape consulting
The sub-consultant team will assist with design services and documentation and with facilitating
submittals to regulatory agencies.The scope of each sub-consultant will vary according to priorities
that develop throughout the design process.
Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Arch sects page 2 of 18
We understand that the approved Schematic Design scheme,its illustrative package,and its estimated
construction cost shall serve as the basis for inclusion in a bond referendum to be administered by the
City of Fayetteville to fund proposed improvements.We anticipate that the City may seek other
methods of funding and implementation to realize the design vision. Because of the unknown budget
and scale of the various construction implementation scenarios, Construction Administration (CA)
scope is completely omitted from this scope discussion.We assume that these services would be
provided either under separate contract or as Additional Services,when the requirements of
construction are better understood by all parties.
Project Scope - Nelson Byrd Woltz
Schematic Design
5.5 months (mid-June—December 2018)
Scope
• Engage the public,stakeholders,and Steering Committee groups through a series of interactive
sessions to better understand aspirations and concerns,site context,and community values.This
strategy includes:
-A minimum of three (3) advertised public design meetings(Community Engagement Meetings).
These sessions will be interactive and designed to allow for multiple ways for the public to provide
feedback on emerging designs and'options and will help the design team to better understand
public expectations and aspirations.
-In addition to the design meetings,we will work with City of Fayetteville (CoF)to identify other
possible ways to share information and solicit feedback(i.e.presence at farmer's market,walks of
the site)in addition to the City-planned online project website. Interactions with the public are
intended to be fun and allow a broader range of the community to participate.
-During each on-site visit,Steering Committee meetings and/or City Council Presentations will be
held to review project progress,provide feedback and direction, and to determine next steps.
-NBW will meet w/specific stakeholders and coordinate with City Staff as required.

Fee disbursement will be according to percentage work complete as reported by NBW every month,
and will include sub-consultant fees,mark-up,and Reimbursable Expenses.
Assumptions
• The proposed Schematic Design fee is based on the anticipated schedule and staffing indicated in
this proposal.Should the scope change,we will work with the City of Fayetteville to adjust our
schedule,staffing,and fee accordingly.
• NBW will not serve as construction project manager, nor facilitate overall construction project
communication or schedule, maintain project records, or prepare change orders.This coordinating
role remains TBD per discussion w/City of Fayetteville and is dependent on construction contract
structure.
• The project design is limited to the project boundary in Appendix B.
• Currently,we do not anticipate significant architecture or fountain systems within the project design
scope or budget.This will not preclude either architecture or fountains as potential features within
Nelson Byrd Wcltz Landscape Architects page 9 of 18
the project design, however each of these can increase the project complexity, coordination, and
design fee and would be negotiated with the City of Fayetteville as an additional expense.
• We assume that the streetscape scope will assess and provide overall Schematic Design level
guidance for all streets within the CAC.
• Specific streets to be developed further in DD,CD, and BN phases include:
- N West Avenue,W Dickson Street,and W Spring Streets adjacent to the West Avenue Lot.
-S West Avenue and W Gregg Avenues adjacent to the Fay Jones Parkland and Fayetteville Public
Library Expansion project.
• Other streets may require further study dependent on the development of the project design and
budget. NBW will work with the City to ascertain whether modifications to these assumptions
represent Additional Services.
Additional Services
• The proposed schedule and fees anticipate a public engagement process as outlined here.We
anticipate that every visit to Fayetteville will include additional engagement and meetings.To the
extent that we can make additional meetings fit within the travel as outlined,we will. If additional
public meetings or presentations are necessary,we will coordinate with the CoF to determine if it
should be considered ill as an Additional Service.
• Travel time,time on site,and expenses are specified and included in the proposed fees.Additional
trips will trigger additional fees.
• Additional Services will be billed at the rates provided below,Travel is billed at 1 time. Expenses will
be billed at cost and as per CoF policy.
• NBW will not be responsible for obtaining permits for removal of any wetland areas in the project
site. Should this become a requirement due to the project design,the design team and Client Group
will evaluate the time and documentation required and whether it requires additional services.

SECTION E: PROJECT SUMMARY AND SCOPE OF WORK
I.Project Vision
The City of Fayetteville envisions the development of a Cultural Arts Corridor along the Razorback Regional Greenway as
an interactive experiential corridor flowing seamlessly from urban gathering space to woodland park linking the
downtowns'cultural,educational and arts destinations to surrounding neighborhoods.The visioning,planning and design
of this Cultural Arts Corridor will provide the community with an opportunity to re-imagine this area's wide variety of
landscapes,destinations and points of interest. The City is committed to a sustainable and resilient design that will
enhance and enrich the experiences of residents and visitors from a diversity of socio-economic backgrounds,ages, races
and genders.
II.Project Description
The City of Fayetteville is requesting qualifications from landscape architecture firms to provide professional services for
the complete design of a Cultural Arts Corridor in downtown Fayetteville along the Razorback Regional Greenway.The
Cultural Arts Corridor study area is roughly bounded by the Fayetteville Public Library and the Fay Jones Natural area on
the south and the Walton Arts Center and Dickson Street Entertainment District on the north.The City is specifically
requesting design services to improve and enhance infrastructure and public spaces on city-owned property within the
Cultural Arts Corridor.The City is also very interested in evaluating project certification under the Sustainable SITES
Initiative thi.ough the US Green building Council. The City is secking qualified landscape architecture firms approved
through the Northwest Arkansas Design Excellence Program to apply for selection to complete this design work.
III.Background
This Cultural Arts Corridor location in the heart of historic downtown Fayetteville represents the opportunity to once
again re-imagine what this City can become.The history of this area is one of consistent renewal. From its industrial and
commercial past along the rail corridor,to the development of the Walton Arts Center in the 1990's and the Fayetteville
Public Library in the early 2000's,this area has proven resilient,constantly adapting to economic changes and cultural
shifts.
Many of the City's major arts and entertainment destinations are located along the Razorback Regional Greenway within
this corridor:the Walton Arts Center, Theater Squared,Nadine Baum Studios,Dickson Street Entertainment District and
the Fayetteville Public Library.
The City is interested in developing the Cultural Arts Corridor through a sustainable landscape design that incorporates
the six fundamental strategies that were identified in the Fayetteville Downtown Master Plan:
• Creation of a series of interconnected special places—develop active and green transportation linkages to the
major cultural,educational,entertainment,open space and education hubs located within the downtown area.
• A superbly walkable environment--this should be showcased as downtown's hallmark.
• Smart about parking—the parking need must be met,but efficiently and sustainably,so that the sense of place is
enhanced, not weakened in the process.
• Smart rules—the establishment of zoning and development rules that attract and secure a caliber of
development worthy of downtown.
• Special places—recognize and encourage an experience-based economy by focusing and expanding on arts,
culture,and entertainment experiences.
City of Fayetteville,AR
RFQ 18-06,Architectural Services for Cultural Arts Corridor
Page 16 of 18
• Living downtown—it must be made a priority to get more people living downtown.
IV.Scope of Work
The selected firm(s)will be required to provide several deliverables specific for the four primary design components
within the Cultural Arts Corridor.
1. The Fay Jones Parkland adjacent to the Razorback Regional Greenway and the Fayetteville Public Library.This area
has the potential to showcase a transition from natural and passive spaces to a more urban environment within a
small geographic space.This parkland is a natural,tranquil and contemplative environment that can also provide
an excellent trail connection from the Razorback Regional Greenway to the Fayetteville Public Library expansion
site which is currently under design.The topography and setting of the Fay Jones natural area presents a
particularly complicated,and consequently rewarding design challenge. Preliminary discussions of possible
design elements that may lend themselves to this parkland include;low impact design stormwater infrastructure,
formal and informal gathering spaces,outdoor learning spaces,public art,stream bank restoration,and bicycle
and pedestrian connections between the Fayetteville Public Library and the Razorback Regional Greenway.
2. The West Avenue and Dickson St. Plaza.The City is interested in the design of a public plaza space on the existing
West Avenue parking lot.The West Avenue parking lot has been the subject of several design studies and project
proposals over the years.The future programing of this parking lot could happen in any number of ways and the
City is looking for a design that can accomplish multiple goals.Currently the lot contains 290 parking spaces that
generate revenue for the repayment of bonds issued to fund the Spring Street Parking Deck.Ultimately,the City
is looking for a development design that creates a public open space or plaza that is flexible in its'use,retains the
Razorback Regional Greenway,explores parking and access solutions,and creates platted lots that can be
marketed to the private sector to recover the costs associated with the public amenities created.
3. Trail Improvements.The Razorback Regional Greenway is a primary transportation corridor that will provide
residents and visitors access to the amenities within the Cultural Arts Corridor.Pedestrians value access that is
safe,comfortable,and convenient to destinations and open spaces.The City is interested in creating a"park
once and walk"environment to better balance parking space scarcity during peak time periods in the
Entertainment District,such as major theatrical shows.The Razorback Regional Greenway is perhaps the most
important connective element that links downtowns'cultural,educational and arts destinations to each other
and the surrounding neighborhoods.The natural vegetative corridor along the Razorback Regional Greenway in
this location is a welcome respite from the urban development that surrounds it.This corridor can be
strengthened and unified through a strong design concept, additional public art,gathering and seating areas and
access to the existing natural features such as Tanglewood Branch.
4. Street Scape Enhancements.The Cultural Arts Corridor boundary includes a significant number of downtown
streets that were laid out in a gridded street pattern.In many cases,these older streets have broken or missing
sidewalk segments and they lack pedestrian scaled lighting and stormwater infrastructure.To provide superior
pedestrian connectivity between the Cultural Arts Corridor,the surrounding neighborhoods and nearby
amenities such as;the downtown Fayetteville Square,the Fayetteville Public High School and the University of
Arkansas,pedestrian and traffic control improvements are necessary for many of the existing streets.

City of Fayetteville,Arkansas
Purchasing Division,Room 306

Fayetteville,AR 72701
Dear Les McGaugh,
Please find enclosed our qualifications for the Fayetteville Cultural Arts Corridor.We are excited by the
prospect of applying two decades of experience and acquired knowledge towards shepherding this
unique project from visioning to actualization.
We are thankful to the Walton Family Foundation and The Northwest Arkansas Design Excellence
Program for the opportunity to articulate our ideal process in service to the City of Fayetteville.Their
innovative spirit and commitment to design excellence is closely aligned with the mission of our firm
to connect people to the places they inhabit.
The following response is based on our understanding of the goals articulated in the Request for
Qualifications and the Fayetteville Downtown Master Plan.The information provided here describes
a process that will create a vibrant and dynamic network that stitches functionality with cultural,
educational,and entertainment program.The future Cultural Arts Corridor can artfully balance a
walkable environment with other transportation infrastructure to create a connected and radiating
downtown core that will attract people and investment.
We have assembled an interdisciplinary team that can address these objectives through integrated
solutions.Our team combines nationally recognized engineers and designers with local firms.
Together we are capable of developing and overseeing the construction of this ambitious project.At
Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects(NBW)we create beautiful,resilient places that are rooted
and supported by their ecological and cultural contexts;local landscape architect,architect,and
zoning expert Flintlock Architecture and Landscape is well versed in practical design solutions and
would provide local knowledge and expertise.Civil engineering firm Nitsch Engineering is a national
leader in providing creative,sustainable,and cost-saving solutions for storm-water management.
Additionally,they can provide green infrastructure and transportation engineering services.Frequent
collaborators BuroHappold Engineering would provide structural engineering and urban planning
services.ETM Associates provide operations and maintenance strategies that would ensure the
long-term success of the Corridor.This is our core team and would be supported by other sub-
consultants as required.
We rely on a highly collaborative process,coordinating and synthesizing inputs from many sources
to create spaces that strengthen a sense of place and well-being.Throughout the design process for
the Cultural Arts Corridor,our team would respond to the history and ecology of the site and deeply
engage the Fayetteville community to create a culturally relevant,socially impactful,and ecologically
resilient public space.Our holistic approach extends beyond site boundaries and would allow us to
create a vision for the Cultural Arts Corridor that bolsters the good work already being done in and
around the City of Fayetteville.
We understand the sustainable design of a Cultural Arts Corridor in Fayetteville will be critical to its
success as a viable downtown.Thoughtful improvements in circulation,trails,and streets in natural
areas and in the urban corridor will provide a healthy and welcoming environment that will attract
people to live and recreate in this historic place.
it
The Cultural Arts Corridor has the potential to provide an interface between the natural assets of
the Razorback Greenway(and the impressive array of connections)with the cultural anchors of
the corridor:the Walton Arts Center,TheatreSquared,and the newly expanded library,to name
a few. Rarely does a community create a vision that seeks to develop the public,cultural,and
commercial realm on both ecological and cultural frameworks.We hope to collaborate with the
City of Fayetteville and key stakeholders to create a connected and vibrant Cultural Arts Corridor
for all of its citizens.
In practical terms,our philosophy focuses on design that maximizes native plant communities and
the creation of habitat,provides best practices for handling stormwater,offers beautiful places for
people to relax or recreate,and fundamentally considers the cultural and ecological history of a
site.All of these elements are integral to each project that NBW designs.We intuitively employ
design strategies specified by the U.S.Green Building's LEED and the Sustainable SITES Initiative
certification programs whether a project is striving for certification or not.In addition,habitat is
created within the context of larger ecologies,native plants are emphasized,highly maintained
landscape that serves little ecological purpose is minimized,and products and materials are
sourced locally,as appropriate.
NBW realized the first Platinum certified project in Virginia for its design of Virginia Commonwealth
University's Rice Center for Environmental Life Sciences.The Engineered Biosystems Building at
Georgia Tech received a LEED Platinum rating,including a 26 out of 26 in the Sustainable Sites
portion and a 10 out of 10 in Water Efficiency.Centennial Park in Nashville,which includes the
restoration of Lake Watauga and the daylighting of a long-buried stream at Cockrill Spring,has
allowed the park to be registered for Sustainable SITES,and is pending certification to achieve a
Silver rating.
Our work creates profound connections between people and the natural world and elevates how
we relate to our environment.We build for resilience,function,and beauty.By creating appealing
and functional spaces,we engage the community to form profound bonds with the land and
engender future generations of stewards.
Our highly accomplished team of collaborators has extensive experience creating responsive
and exemplary designs that lead to exceptional places.Together,we are delighted to express
our interest and present our qualifications for this opportunity.We believe that our significant
experience collaborating in complex urban contexts to create beautiful and functional civic
landscapes will enable us to help bring the vision for the Fayetteville Cultural Arts Corridor to life,
Sincerely,

Hobsonville Coastal Linear Park Auckland, New Zealand
i NBW Team-Thomas Woltz,Breck Gastinger,Zuzana Ponca
I The Hobsonville Coastal Linear Park-Te Ara Manawa-
Is designed to create a landscape of discovery through
navigation,one that takes visitors across place and time,
through the history of both people and the landscape.
Historically a place of coming and going-from a stopping
point of the Maori people on fishing expeditions,to the ebb
and flow of the tides and the seasonal migration of birds-this
2.5 mile walkway along the coast has much for visitors to
discover.Various Maori practices and traditions have been
incorporated into the design of the park,as have
traces of the site's history as a seaplane base,
NBW worked in collaboration with the New Zealand based
Isthmus Group to design this new coastal linear park on the
Upper Harbor,in Auckland.The design links the area's parks
and open space while navigating challenging topography
along the Point.Expansive views of the harbor contrast
with elevated bushwalks that periodically open to framed .r, `ifM' .+

Citygarden St. Louis, Missouri
NBW Team-Thomas Woltz,Brack Gastinger
NBW was commissioned by the Gateway Foundation to design
a public garden for the display of twenty-four contemporary --,..,--~- __
sculptures.The result is Citygarden,a three-acre park in the
heart of downtown St. Louis.The park encourages interaction _*--7;-- .. � r
with contemporary art and the region's ecology in a space of -'
refuge and play,while creating a network of raingardens that i
treat the site's stormwater.Citygarden challenges the typical I ` l• ( _ij-� •l�
ornamental palette for public landscapes by emphasizing the [; }_1 t U---J , . 7,
seasonal variety of native plants and by creating spaces of 1
playful interaction with both water and art.Most remarkably, 6G — ____—__��
the public appreciation of the park has contributed to
reinvestment in the surrounding neighborhood blocks,as
office workers and families find refuge in its dynamic spaces.
NBW led a coordinated effort with the Gateway Foundation, �:
the City of St.Louis,the café architect,fountain consultants, i� , �`

Located between Capitol Hill and the Anacostia River,the three-acre Ali
Washington Canal Park covers three city blocks in the southeast quadrant
of Washington, DC.The Capital Riverfront neighborhood that surrounds the ( ,= '<�'
park site has been undergoing major redevelopment,and the development of .1 . ( ,.� . 1`t s''

The sustainable management of water was one of the primary objectives of _ :r` `'�; .F ..);,Nr j 11
the Washington Canal Park project.The goal was to include water both asii
a key symbolic element, as well as a functional and sustainable element. In
collaboration with an interdisciplinary team, Nitsch Engineering accomplished .' ,, '" , ,
this by incorporating appropriate sustainable solutions that value rainwater as tom'" a, '7 I" ''.,
a resource. ---�„"'--„--•;.,,: � : i
Nitsch Engineering conceptualized collecting rainfall runoff from the site WI
and pavilion roofs and storing the water in underground cisterns to be �` .�
reused within the Park for irrigating landscaping,flushing toilets and urinals,
and replenishing the ice skating rink and fountains. Using our proprietary Project Features
RainUSETM Software,we estimated that the water demands of the Park • Sustainable site design
exceed the amount of rainwater that can be collected on-site.We therefore • Stormwater management
evaluated the benefits of capturing future off-site building roof runoff from systems, including rain
neighboring development parcels on the stormwater reuse system's ability gardens, created wetland,
to meet the water demands of the Park.As a result of Nitsch Engineering's stormwater harvesting
• Green roofs, grey and
assessments, stormwater pipes in adjacent streets will allow neighboring blackwater recycling
buildings to send roof runoff into the Canal Park cisterns, creating a
neighborhood-scale stormwater management system.This visionary Client
approach to stormwater management demonstrates a unique partnership OLIN
between public and private entities to implement green infrastructure at a
neighborhood scale.
Completion Date
By capturing, treating, and reusing stormwater within the site,the project 2012
aims to not only reduce the amount of water that is withdrawn from City
water infrastructure, but also reduce the amount of stormwater discharged
to City drainage infrastructure. Nitsch Engineering estimated that once
the neighboring building roof drains have been tied into the Canal Park
stormwater collection system,the design could save approximately 1.5
million gallons of potable water on average each year.The reuse of this
volume of rainfall,which was previously converted to mostly direct runoff,will
help minimize the region's development impact on the frequent combined
sewer overflows polluting the Anacostia River.
Stormwater runoff collected from the Park's ground surfaces are being
treated through linear rain gardens, which provide a visual amenity and a
recreational and educational opportunity for Park visitors. Once treated, the
ground-level runoff and screened roof runoff will be retained in cisterns and
reused on-site. Tree box filters are also being used to treat stormwater runoff
from streets adjacent to the Park.
The project earned SITES Three Star certification,as well as LEED Gold
Certification.

Identity,Print,Signage and Environmental Graphics for The High Line,2001-Ongoing
Client:Friends of the High Line
Originally built for freight trains in the 1930s,the High Line is an elevated rail structure on
Manhattan's West Side that has been turned into the city's most popular new park.The
structure was saved from demolition by Friends of the High Line,a community-based
non-profit organization that advocated for the preservation and reuse of the structure as a
pedestrian promenade.
Pentagram has been the graphic consultant for Friends of the High Line since the
organization began its campaign,designing the group's identity and various fundraising and
promotional pieces to help gain support for the intiative.The designers created a simple,
unique and highly recognizable identity for the group that subsequently became the logo
for the park itself.Other projects have included the design of"Reclaiming the High Line,"
a book about the history and potential for the structure,and"Designing the High Line."an
exhibition at Grand Central Station that displayed over 700 architectural proposals for the
redevelopment.
Once the city ultimately approved the plan to revitalize and reuse the High Line as a
pedestrian park and promenade,Pentagram was invited to work with the selected landscape
architecture firm,James Corner Field Operations,to design the signage and environmental
• graphics for the structure.The program includes identification signage,maps and
wayfinding.The High Line opened to the public in June 2009.
