Parks & Recreation
We play well with others.
We play well with others … and others play well in the places we create. LSD works with the public, stakeholders, and clients to plan and design parks and recreation areas that enhance the quality of life. Our master planning projects identify recreation needs and establish priorities on a community-wide basis. Our design projects range from park renovations to the design of multi-use paths and large regional parks. We balance practical issues like citizen safety, maintenance, and accessibility with broader concerns like sustainability and the protection of natural resources. LSD’s recreation planners and designers work closely with our environmental professionals to ensure that natural and cultural resources are recognized and protected.
