“Rewilding” Session at ASLA Conference

eDD’s Managing Partner, Eric Rothstein, spoke at the 2024 National Conference for the American Society of Landscape Architecture on Sunday, October 6th, in DC. His session, “Rewilding a Post-industrial Landscape: A Story About Diversity,” was presented with Heather Blaikie, ASLA, PLA, of ScenicHudson.org, and Marni Burns, ASLA, PLA, of TheOlinStudio.com.

They explored how regenerative processes of unique ecosystems, in a 520-acre quarried landscape with a mile of Hudson River shoreline, can be amplified as a model for bolstering biodiversity in the transformation of a large-scale post-industrial site to deliver inclusive community gathering spaces within a framework of interpretation and recovery.
