<br />Bruce Jacobson <br />Associate, Close Landscape Architecture <br />Registered Landscape Architect <br /> <br />· Bachelor of Landscape Architecture, Iowa State <br />University, 1980 <br /> <br />Bruce joined Close Landscape Architecture in 1995. <br />His experience in planning and urban design draws <br />from completed projects in a number of urban centers <br />across the country including the Twin Cities, Denver, <br />Phoenix, San Francisco and the Baltimore Washington <br />D.C. metro area. <br /> <br />Much of this work defined strategies for neighborhood <br />revitalization and economic development organized <br />around a public amenity to encourage private investment, <br />attract tourism dollars and support "round the clock" activ- <br />ity. Amenities included parks, trails and a variety of recre- <br />ational uses, ponds, streams and other natural systems <br />and urban waterfront/public gathering places. <br /> <br />Bruce brings valuable experience to community-based <br />planning and site design; his work with public participa- <br />tion has been key to the successful implementation of <br />each project. <br /> <br />Representative Proiects <br />· Jacobson Wallace Associates,lnc. <br />Carrol Creek Park, Fredrick, MD.
