In the Press 

This month CVDA volunteered to present the profession of Landscape Architecture to girls aged 11-14 enrolled in the “Architecture for Every Girl Mentor Program- Design like a Girl."  The program is sponsored by The American Institute of Architects, Buck County and was titled Fundamentals of Landscape Architecture. The workshop began with a walking tour to a recent garden CVDA completed in Doylestown Borough. The garden also served as the basis for a design project the girls would develop models for in the afternoon.

The tour continued through the Mercer Museum grounds, including the labyrinth. The next stop was our office where the girls met designers Lisa and Lucinda, who showed the girls the computer workstations. The girls spent the afternoon designing and building models based on their tour and discussion with the mentors. The workshop ended with a presentation of the girls' models.  It was an honor to encourage these aspiring young women!

Our vision comes to life!  We did something right and opened the door to a new vision. CVDA is a leader in downtown revitalization, having enhanced many townships over the years such as Ambler, Keswick, Glenside, Upper Darby and Bryn Mawr.  Our current projects include River Station in Dowingtown, Pennsylvania and Waterview in Jonestown, Florida. 

 

Our firm is proud to donate our services for this revitalization project spearheaded by the Doylestown Historical Society.  All of the park’s plantings will be native species.
