    Dear friends and colleagues,

    It is with great pleasure that we honor the Annual FloridaChapter Design Awards recipients, newest Honorary ASLAMembers, Fellows inductees, and leadership for 2010 and2011! The caliber of knowledge and works presented il-lustrate the passion of Landscape Architects across Floridaworking to create unique experiences, while at the same

    time protecting the health, safety and welfare of the resi-dents and guests of our great state.

    In 2010, the Florida Chapter celebrated 50 years with over350 people attending our Annual Conference and Expo inGainesville. Former Florida Governor Buddy MacKay and for-mer University of Florida Department of Landscape Architec-ture Chair Herrick Smith provided Keynote Speeches duringthe Conference. The Florida Chapter also honored three newinductees into the ASLA Council of Fellows. The 2010 FLASLAExecutive Committee worked tirelessly to fulfill the ChaptersMission during a challenging time for our profession. Amongthe measures that the ExCom approved was a reduction in

    Chapter membership dues for emerging professionals, a CECTraveling Road Show to make educational opportunitiesmore accessible to the membership throughout the state,and new communication tools to connect with members,including the renewal of a Chapter Newsletter. Despite atight budget, Chapter leadership was still able to prioritizeeducation by providing a donation to each of the statesuniversity Landscape Architecture programs. In addition, theEdward D. Stone Jr. Landmark Award was established andthe Government Affairs Committee (GAC) spearheaded theChapters participation in the Stormwater Task Force.

    The Florida Chapter ASLA continued to build upon its previ-ous successes throughout 2011 as it looked to the future

    and laid the foundations for further growth and improve-ment of membership services, a holistic communicationsprocess, market branding, and a public relations strategy.Membership was maintained near 700 dedicated members.

    The Chapter evaluated the expenses and benefits of manyservices and programs and made necessary adjustments toremain financially strong despite the decreased member-ship and sponsorship seen just a few years ago. Chapterrepresentatives worked with the Governors AppointmentOffice to appoint new Landscape Architect and Consumermembers to ensure the viability of the Board of LandscapeArchitecture. FLASLA members also continued their outreachto national ASLA through appointments on several ASLA

    committees and involvement in education sessions andpanel discussions at the ASLA Annual Meeting & Expo in SanDiego.

    To better engage student chapter members and recentgraduates, the Chapter Executive Committee approved thecreation of a fifth Member at Large responsible for represent-ing emerging professionals and connecting with students.

    The first task of this newly elected leader is to liaise with theFIU Student Chapter and provide FLASLA support as FIUprepares to host the 2012 LABASH in South Florida, a gather-ing of landscape architectural students from across NorthAmerica and around the globe.

    In July, nearly 650 attendees met in Palm Beach at thebeautiful and historic The Breakers resort for the 45th FLASLAAnnual Meeting and Expo highlighted by local tours, educa-tion sessions, the Chapter Annual Business Meeting withASLA President Elect Susan Hatchell, FASLA addressing theattendees, legislators reception, and the Annual Design

    Awards Gala.

    Landscape Architects, designers, and allied professionalssprang into action in March with what is unequivocallythe strongest and best coordinated grassroots advocacycampaign ever executed by the Florida Chapter leadership,its members, and its friends. On the block was the continuedstatutory regulation of over fifty regulated industries includ-ing landscape architecture. Years of careful planning andrelationship building, swift action, and effective communica-tion resulted in the removal of Landscape Architects from abill that would have opened the practice without regard forqualifications, knowledge, or expertise; increased competi-

    tion in a challenging economy; and posed a threat to pro-tecting the health, safety and welfare of the general public.We thank the members, friends, and landscape design andallied professionals from across the state who advocated onbehalf of the profession to ensure its continued regulation.

    During 2011, the Chapter created the Jeffrey Siegel, FASLA,Leadership Award honoring the legacy and memory of thetwo time past chapter president. The award is bestowed atthe discretion of the Chapter s past presidents recognizingexceptional leadership of a member or non-member of ASLAwithin the landscape architecture community and profes-sion. Hilton Meadows is the inaugural recipient of this awardfor his passion and dedication to the profession.

    The Florida Chapter of ASLA remains dedicated to protect-ing, advancing, and promoting the profession. During thepast two years, the leadership has worked diligently to evalu-ate and identify programs and processes to strengthen theChapter moving forward. We are encouraged by the founda-tions established and look to a very promising future.

    Sincerely,

    Kenn Bates, PLA, ASLAPresident (2011)

    My love for landscape architecture roots from my past profession as a City Planner, coupled with a desire to create newand sustainable urban environments. After receiving a bachelors degree in Urban and Environmental Planning from theUniversity of Virginia in May 2005, I began working as a City Planner for the City of Hampton. In Hampton, I had severalleadership roles. These roles included programming several community focus groups, engaging and representing thecommunity and its leaders, as well as reporting to governing officials. Additionally, I worked on a number of land use ap-plications and master plan initiatives. Throughout these processes, obtaining community feedback was essential. Extremepleasure was found in working with neighborhood groups and representing a voice that often goes unheard.

    Throughout his career, Nathaniel Reedhas insistedthat public policy decisions must rest on thefoundation of strong science and informed dialog. Anenvironmental advisor to seven Florida governors fromboth political parties, Reed also served as AssistantSecretary of the Interior under Presidents RichardNixon and Gerald Ford. Because of his leadership,passion and decades of dedicated activism, Mr. Reedhas left an indelible imprint on the local, state, andnational environments.

    Mr. Reed was born in New York City, July 23, 1933 andspent much of his childhood wintering in Hobe Sound,Florida. He graduated with his B.A. from Trinity Collegein 1955, going on to serve as an officer in the U.S. AirForce military intelligence system in Europe, NorthAfrica and the Middle East until 1959. He returned to

    his beloved Hobe Sound in 1960, where he servedas Vice President and then President of the HobeSound Company until 1971. Thanks to his parentsvision, hundreds of acres of Jupiter Island wildernesswere preserved as this community was developed.Mr. Reed was actively involved in securing the rangeof land donations and sales that created the NatureConservancys Blowing Rocks Preserve and the HobeSound National Wildlife Refuge, both on Jupiter Island.

    In 1967, Republican Gov. Claude R. Kirk, Jr., appointedMr. Reed as the states first Governor s EnvironmentalCounsel (and the nations first environmental advisorto a governor), a position he would hold until 1971.For his considerable work, he accepted compensationin the amount of $1 per year. According to MichaelGrunwald, Washington Post reporter and author of TheSwamp, Kirk rarely started out on the green side of anissue, but thanks to Reed and the new politics of theenvironment, he usually ended up there.

    In 1968, construction began on the massive FloridaJetport sited adjacent to Everglades National ParkThe plans were for the largest airport in the worldencompassing 39 square miles of marshland, with a

    HONORARY ASLAFLORIDAS 2011 RECIPIENT NATHANIEL REED

    The Florida Chapter is pleased to have nominated Nathaniel Reed to honorary member-ship. For more than 50 years, Mr. Reed has devoted his time, energy and personal resourcesto the protection of the natural environment. As a former Assistant Secretary of the Interiorand environmental advisor to seven Florida governors, his efforts have helped preserveFloridas natural systems for future generations to enjoy.

    takeoff or landing every 30 seconds. The proposal alsoincluded a high speed rail link to Miami and foresawthe development of a new community of 150,000residents. State permits and federal funds were soonsecured for the project, and construction commenced.

    Mr. Reed worked to persuade federal officials topermanently halt the project. Even though the U.S.Department of Transportation and Federal AviationAdministration supported the project, Mr. Reedconvinced Department of Interior officials of theenvironmental damage the project would cause. In hisNew Years Day message, President Nixons declared1970 the year of the environment. Later that month,Gov. Kirk and Mr. Reed met with President Nixon andother top administration officials, where the Presidentannounced he was withdrawing funding for the

    project and signed the Florida Jetport Pact. The remotejetport site is now used to train airline pilots on takeoffsand landings.

    In 1969, Gov. Kirk named Mr. Reed Chair of the newDepartment of Air and Water Pollution Control, whichevolved into todays Department of EnvironmentalProtection. During his two year tenure, Mr. Reedchaired extensive hearings across the state to setwater quality standards and create air quality regionsin the state. Mr. Reed soon began ordering industrialand municipal polluters to treat their waste, urgingcommunities to raise taxes to fund the sewagetreatment projects. He drafted the states water qualitystandards, outlawing discharges that would changethe flora or fauna of a receiving body of water.

    In 1971, Mr. Reed accepted President Richard Nixonsinvitation to serve at the national level. Mr. Reedbecame Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Fish,Wildlife and National Parks, a position he wouldcontinue to serve under President Gerald Ford until1977. In that capacity, Reed played an instrumental rolein banning the use of DDT, before it created a silentspring.

    Mr. Reed was involved in drafting and passage of oneof the nations most broad-reaching environmentallaws, the Endangered Species Act of 1973, servingas the administrations main witness before multiplecongressional committees. He also played a leadingrole in the protection of Bald and Golden eagles, and

    laid the foundation for the Alaska Land Act whichultimately would preserve over 100 million acres ofnational parks, wildlife refuges, and additions to thenational forests.

    Upon returning to Florida in 1978, Democrat GovernorBob Graham appointed Mr. Reed to serve on the SouthFlorida Water Management District Governing Board,a highly controversial move as the board at that timewas dominated by sugar and development interestsGov. Graham would later note, Nat Reed was theacknowledged leader of a new wave of Floridians whofundamentally transformed the environmental culture,values and public policies of the state from 1967 to themid 1970s. Mr. Reed was subsequently reappointedby Republican Governor Bob Martinez and DemocratGovernor Lawton Chiles. He served for a total of 14years.

    In 1986, Mr. Reed helped found 1000 Friends ofFlorida This statewide, bipartisan, nonprofit growthmanagement watchdog was established to overseeimplementation of Floridas fledgling growthmanagement act. Mr. Reed traveled the state, givingnumerous presentations on the importance of

    Floridas growth management process and the needfor a watchdog. He raised major funding to launchthe fledgling organization and continues to play asignificant role in raising funds for 1000 Friends to thisday. When Floridas growth management act cameunder serious attack in 1988, Mr. Reed testified before

    the House, calling the act Floridas last great hope toplan a future.

    Nathaniel Reed was a founding member of theEverglades Foundation, an influential not-for-profitorganization created in 1993 and dedicated toadvancing an understanding of the Greater EvergladesEcosystem and its irreplaceable environmental andeconomic value. He currently serves as its ViceChair.

    Roy S. Rood(December 13, 1918 - October 8, 2011)wasparticularly influential on the lives of many landscapearchitects during his distinguished career. Thanks inpart to his advocacy; Florida was one of the first statesto legislate the regulation of landscape architecture; anational trend that continues 45 years later.

    For landscape architects, Roy is well known by hisrecord: Advocating for the regulation of landscape archi-

    tecture in Florida, and leading others in FNGLA todo the same.

    Mentoring and guiding young people to becomelandscape architects.

    Leading by example; showing everyone themeaning of service to ones chosen industry andprofession.

    Generously sharing his wealth of horticulturaland business knowledge with colleagues and

    competitors.

    Roy Rood served as FNGLA president in 1958-59. Hehas been honored with the associations highest award,the Wendell E. Butler award, and has been inducted inFNGLAs Hall of Fame. Roy Rood is such a believer inFNGLA, he continues to recruit members even today,and will publically guarantee anyone who joins anddoesnt think they got their moneys worth to comesee him, and he will personally pay them back theamount of the dues. He will then say, Ive been offer-ing that guarantee since 1958 and have yet to haveanyone come for a refund!

    Often, Roy shared his pride; being in the top four ofthe Jupiter High School class of 1936. Of course therewere only five in the class Just days after graduation,Roy went to work with Elijah Mayo building shell roadson Jupiter Island. Their three yard truck needed to beloaded and unloaded by hand. Some of those roadsstill exist today. In October of the same year, for twentycents an hour, Roy went to work for the well estab-lished Wilsons Palm Garden. After just three years, andgetting a nickel raise, he knew it was time to moveonward.

    HONORARY ASLAFLORIDAS 2010 RECIPIENT ROY SCHALLER ROOD

    The Florida Chapter is pleased to have nominated Roy Schaller Rood to honorary member-ship. As a founding member of the Florida Nursery, Growers and Landscape Association, Mr.Rood laid the foundation of an allied association that continues to support ASLAs missionof balancing the built and natural environments. He is revered as one of the early leaders ofthe landscape industry in Florida. Nearly every person in the Floridas green industries canproudly trace their professional pedigree back to Mr. Rood.

    Selected by ASLAs Board of Trustees, honorary membership is among the highest honorsASLA may bestow upon non-landscape architects in recognition of notable service to theprofession. Since its inception in 1899, ASLA has awarded only 152 honorary memberships.

    The next step up Roys ladder of success led him intohorticulture, working for Beeman Dawes, part of aprominent family on Jupiter Island. He managed andmaintained the 13 acre property, and oversaw thethree other employees. Beeman Dawes was the Chair-man of the board for Purell Oil. His brother Henry wasthe president of Purell oil, Rufus was the president of

    the First National Bank in Chicago, and their brotherCharles was the vice president of the United States un-der Calvin Coolidge. Mrs. Dawes was an avid gardener,and this is where Roy got his education in roses andnatural fertilizers.

    December 7, 1941 a day that would live in infamychanged Roys life. Roy heard of the attack on Pearl Har-bor while playing tennis with Nat Reed who currentlyserves as vice chairman of the Everglades Foundation.A week later at the age of 22, Roy enlisted in the Navy.After completing aviation mechanics training, Roy was

    chosen to instruct in Jacksonville and did so until 1944.Through the remainder of the war, Roy manned theUSS Hollandia, an oil tanker converted into an aircraftcarrier. Based in San Diego, the ship traveled the globe,supplying the fleet with fuel and aircraft. Too often,the ship navigated through dark waters loaded witha million and a half gallons just below the deck. Bythe end of the war, Roy was an aviation mate first classand acting Chief Petty Officer. His commander was LtGeorge Rumsfeld; Donald Rumsfelds father.

    In October of 1945, the 27 year old veteran hitchhikedleisurely around the states for seventy days; loafing offas he would put it. Finding his way home to Jupiter,Roy with $300 and an old Pontiac coupe with a rumbleseat, purchased a wheel barrow, shovels, rakes, a pick,and a crosscut saw to start Rood Landscape. The sawhangs in Roods office today. By 2001, there were 128employees.

    For $700 dollars, Roy bought his first truck, a new 1946Ford. Roy would work in the Stuart, Jupiter, JupiterIsland area from 7 to 4 and then trek to Delray topurchase plants for the next day. With the businessever expanding Roy went to NJ to buy an army surplustruck. None were available so instead he bought fourpieces of heavy equipment brought them back toFlorida and traded for a 2 ton truck. In 1948 and1949, South Florida experienced very bad storms; do-ing great damage to Jupiter Island. Roys first truck, bythen converted into a crane, was sorely needed in thecleanups, and catapulted Rood Landscape into a muchlarger business enterprise. His late wife Patricia and he

    had two children Vanessa and Nelson.

    In May 1952, Roy and a group of other foliage growersand nurserymen met at an annual convention in KeyBiscayne. There, they elected to break away, and formthe Florida Nursery and Growers Association (FNGA,now FNGLA). To seal the deal they all met again; every-one put up $100, and voted in a president. They startedwith less than 100 members.

    While nurturing a business, Roy Rood gave back to hisindustry and community in many ways. Most notableare:

    1947 Roy helped found the American Legion Post,and was its first commander. The post is in partnamed after Roys Brother Homer who lost his lifeon Anzio Beach

    1954 Roy with help started the Jupiter Hobe SoundKiwanis club

    1959 Roy was the FNGA state president. He wasalso the Palm Beach Chapter president which wasthe first chapter to host a FNGA state convention

    1959 Roy was instrumental in founding KiwanisPark.

    Along his incredible journey, people have recognizedRoys meaningful contributions: Roy has been the recipient of countless awards

    in the landscaping industry, FNGLA, and his com-munity.

    Roy was honored in 1988 with the National Land-scape award for the Gardens Mall Project. BarbaraBush presented him with the award.

    FNGLA has renamed its most prestigious land-scape award, the Roy S. Rood Award.

    Florida ASLA member Elizabeth Gillick recalls workingfor Roy in 1977-1979. His depth of knowledge of thehorticultural aspects of our profession and his ongoingcommitment to high quality standards stands out Roys sense of design and his respect, in his contract-ing capacity, for proper and accurate installation whilerespecting the design intent of landscape architects isa quality that seemed so right . I learned much fromRoy during our professional association and in observations of his work

    WEST 8 URBAN DESIGN & LANDSCAPE ARCHITEC TURE P.C.NEW YORK, NEW YORK

    Miami Beach Soundscape announces itself as the finalcomponent of the City Center Redevelopment Project add-ing three-acres of green space that replaces a surface-levelparking lot. Its proximity to some of Miami Beachs largesthistorical and civic institutions and cultural amenities and itsimmediate relationship to the New World Symphony (NWS)Campus make the Park an important venue for the City, anda destination and gathering place for residents and visitors

    alike. The design team was tasked with designing a spacethat would support a host of programmatic demands, alongwith the expectation to deliver a world-class urban park.Responding to these programmatic demands, the designteam urged for this public space to be green, shaded, andfeels more like a park. By day, the Park design encouragesrelaxing, meeting friends, and is a welcoming crossroadsbetween the sites adjacent destinations. After dark the Parkis transformed into a spectacle of video, art, music, and film.Civic events such as Art Basel, Film Festivals, street perform-ers, and other uses encourage Park use at all hours. The Parkis a one-of-a-kind destination, celebrates Miamis euphoric

    vitality, is a place to see and be seen, and delivers aunified expression of music, landscape, and experi-ence.

    A family of architectural elements was created to in-corporate audio and video equipment throughout thepark the Ballet Bar, the Projection Tower, and MediaHydrants. The prime listening area of the Park faces the

    wall screen NWS exterior faade - and has space fornearly 1,000 to watch and listen to simulcast concerts,films, commissioned video art, city-provided content,and digital installations. The design team housed 160professional quality speakers in two simple Ballet Bars;providing immersive sound and defining the limits ofthe viewing area. The Projection Tower is a unique, ele-vated and accessible enclosure that faces the NWS pro-jection wall and houses four HD projectors. The towerstands 40 feet tall and provides unimpeded viewsthrough the park. Four Media Hydrants are strategicallylocated throughout the Park and conceal additional

    speakers and audio and data processing equipment.These service points extend the Parks programmaticcapabilities for smaller groups of performers, civic andcultural affairs, and other public events.

    Connections are made to the Parks off-site destina-tions via a mosaic pattern of pathways that respond toits location at the crossroads of two major City streets.The network of connected pathways is based on shift-ing views through the Park and elicits the feeling of aPark larger than its size. Varying path widths of whiteconcrete distinguish a hierarchy of circulation, and helpto reflect heat; contributing to the Parks ambition for

    a micro-climate that allows for use year-round. Subtle to-pography transforms the previous asphalt parking surfacinto a gracefully undulating sea of green, greatly increas-ing the sites porosity. Topography was a driving force inthe parks design to create a sequence of micro-spaces.White precast concrete seating walls offer opportuni-ties for relaxing or socializing throughout the Park. Thewall heights ebb and flow with the sites grade changesand are thoughtful of sightlines, orientation, exposure,pedestrian points of intersection, and program. Integralskateboard deterrents -pebbles - are a unique, simple,and robust solution to the Citys concerns.
