Inspired by Chicago's Millennium Park, Cleveland's Group Plan Commission sought a dramatic civic space in the heart of Cleveland. The commission retained James Corner in 2009 to reimagine Public Square, resulting in a plan that includes, among other features, a reflecting pool that doubles as a winter ice rink and summer splash pool. After five years of studies and plan preparation and revision in collaboration with Cleveland civic leaders, Corner's plan won approval. With a strong show of civic backing spearheaded by the Cleveland Foundation and Gund Foundation and the looming 2016 RNC, the project moved rapidly from drawing board to implementation. | Date: 2014 | Source: James Corner Field Operations and LAND StudioDownload Original File
