Show Notes

Leonard’s guest today, Susannah Drake, talks about environmentally conscious design.

Since founding DLANDstudio in 2005, Susannah Drake has worked on projects ranging in scale from intimate gardens to large-scale urban planning initiatives. Her design for QueensWay transforms a 3.5 mile stretch of abandoned railway in Central Queens into a family-friendly linear park and cultural greenway. A leader in implementing design strategies to confront the impacts of climate change, DLANDstudio’s Gowanus Canal Sponge Park is a working landscape that improves the environment of the EPA Superfund site over time.https://youtu.be/VKH-KF3Psnw
