Our role as landscape architects is sometimes to the the voice of the project and to represent the goals and vision to the community. Sometimes that means giving presentations at City Hall, and sometimes it means providing content that promotes the project..
When Skyline Engineering started the Downtown Lighting project it was just a vision by Downtown Rapid City to make it feel safer for pedestrians, more inviting overall, and to unify the district. We were brought on and created a video and supporting graphics to relay that message.
The interviews are still fun and relevant, and we’ve seen Rapid come a long ways in just a few years from where we were then.
And congratulations to Rapid City and Skyline - this project recently finished, and downtown feels just like our vision!
