ASLA Selects 29 Award-Winning Projects

The American Society of Landscape Architects on April 15 announced the 29 recipients of its 2008 Professional Awards, selected by jury from more than 500 entries. ASLA will present the awards on October 6 at their annual meeting in Philadelphia. For photos and descriptions of all the winners, visit ASLA’s Web site. Pictured here is a project worthy of a visit during the AIA convention in May: The Boston’s Children’s Museum, landscape architecture by Michael Van Valkenburgh. The project, which captured an ASLA honor award, transforms the museum’s outdoor space into an extension of its indoor interactive learning environment. The museum’s building addition is by Cambridge Seven Architects. Photo © Steven Turner Architectural Photography.
