TWMLA is extremely pleased to announce that its Schwartz Center Plaza project won a Merit Award for Built Work during the Upstate New York ASLA Chapter’s annual awards ceremony last week. “Fantastic transformation of the space from forlorn to vital!” wrote the award jurors. The jury also was impressed with the “attention to sustainability, sourcing, materials.”

The Schwartz Center Plaza project transformed a little used area into a lively public space that supports a wide range of programming. The new design is a highly permeable, open, and flexible space that is inviting to the community. TWMLA provided leadership on programming, public outreach, design, and construction.
