( ~ ~ "'::c: -::'_.~ Centennial Olympic Park Atlanta, GA Hosting the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games ignited a spirit of urban renewal and civic pride in the City of Atlanta that inspired Centennial Olympic Park. The 21-acre park is a legacy to the vision and alliance of the City of Atlanta, the State of Georgia, the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games, and the many civic organizations, special interest groups and designers involved. Centennial Olympic Park is designed as a permanent downtown revitalization feature. Thematically, it imprints a landscape "quilt" into the fabric of city streets to convey the cultural heritage of the American South and Atlanta's reputation as the "City of Trees". Services: Prime / Park Design (EDAW) Parc Diagonal Mar Barcelona, NA The park includes active and passive play areas, a major pond, an outdoor cafe, a play fountain and viewing mounds. All of these features are intertwined with a comprehensive set of pedestrian paths -- some soft, some hard -- that sweep throughout the park towards the sea. Rendered in a resolute modernist language, the park is conceived as an abstract tapestry in its plan view. Services: Master Planning, Design (EDAW) Wharf District Parks Boston, MA The Central Artery Tunnel, a.k.a. the Big Dig project, is the biggest and most expensive public works program in U.S. history It will be accompanied by 250 acres of new parks and open space, including three new downtown parks along a linear path. At four acres, the Wharf District Parks are the largest. They will occupy a five-block waterfront area extending between Christopher Columbus Park and High Street. After participating in an international design competition, EDAW's preliminary "City Green/Green City" concept won the project. The mission of the design team - 10 firms led by EDAW - in subsequent work was to create a waterfront destination that is uniquely "of Boston," enjoyable for both residents and visitors.
