<br />Mr. Hood, ASLA, has over twenty-four years of experience
<br />in site design and landscape architecture for public
<br />spaces. Mr. Hood has a Bachelor of Science in Landscape
<br />Architecture from Purdue University. His design influence
<br />is featured in the public realm design of places such as
<br />Lakeland's Hollis Garden, the City of Orlando's Harry P. Leu
<br />Botanical Gardens, Winter Park's Park Avenue, Downtown
<br />Plant Street in Winter Garden and the University of Central
<br />Florida's Health Sciences Campus at Lake Nona.
<br />Mr. Hood's philosophy of design focuses on functional and
<br />timeless design that is grounded in context and equity of
<br />users. Jay has long focused on the creative use of native
<br />plant material and the use of indigenous hardscape
<br />
<br />materials. His goal with every design is to create spaces
<br />which have meaning, tell a story, and create lasting value.

<br />Project Experience
<br />
<br />Miami Circle, Miami, FL
<br />Discovered in 1998, the Miami Circle at Brickell Point is a
<br />nationally significant archaeological site located at the
<br />mouth of the Miami River in downtown Miami. The Miami
<br />Circle was designated a National Historic Landmark by
<br />the U.S. Department of the Interior. The firm was selected
<br />by the Historical Museum of South Florida to implement
<br />planning and design efforts at the Miami Circle. Plans
<br />include recreational and education opportunities in an
<br />urban park setting for local residents, tourists and those
<br />interested in the Circle's spiritual associations. Mr. Hood
<br />served as the Principal Designer of the Master Plan and
<br />Phase I Implementation.
<br />
<br />Baldwin Park - Neighborhood Parks and Open Space,
<br />Orlando, FL
<br />Mr. Hood served as Principal-in-Charge for the project. As
<br />the Master Landscape Architect, the firm has provided
<br />Baldwin Park Development Company with a full range of
<br />design services that include conceptual design through
<br />construction observation. Projects include the village
<br />center and harbor on Lake Baldwin as well as a variety
<br />of urban parks, neighborhood parks and resource based
<br />parks, streetscape design, tree preservation and relocation,
<br />environmental communication graphics, trail design and
<br />lake edge restoration.
<br />
<br />Church Street Streetscape, Orlando, FL
<br />The Church Street Streetscape project is one of the key
<br />first steps toward realizing the Orlando Venues Master
<br />Plan of redevelopment. Running in front of and to the west
<br />of the Orlando Amway Center, this streetscape project
<br />will act as a catalyst for the eventual redevelopment of
<br />the surrounding land uses; help establish an identity
<br />for the burgeoning downtown retail-entertainment core
<br />while respecting the heritage, values, and function of the
<br />surrounding neighborhoods. For this project, AECOM was
<br />a sub-consultant to WBQ Design and Engineering. Mr.
<br />Hood served as AECOM Principal-in-Charge. The project
<br />includes public involvement and concept to construction
<br />phase services. The construction budget for this project
<br />is estimated to $12.5 million. Funding for this project
