Field Operations
Field Operations is a leading-edge urban design and landscape architecture practice based in New York City, with offices in San Francisco, Philadelphia, Shenzhen, and London. Field Operations is renowned for strong contemporary design across a variety of project types and scales, from large urban districts and mixed-use masterplans, to large parks, waterfronts and public spaces, to small well-crafted, detailed places. Regardless of scale, there is a special commitment to the design of a vibrant and dynamic public realm, informed by the ecology of both people and nature, rooted in place and context. Of primary importance is the ecological basis of natural systems in relationship to urban form and public experience. Important projects include New York’s highly-acclaimed High Line; London’s South Park at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park; Santa Monica’s Tongva Park; Chicago’s Navy Pier; Cleveland’s Public Square; Philadelphia’s Race Street Pier; Seattle’s Central Waterfront; Brooklyn’s Domino Waterfront; the Presidio Tunnel Tops and the South Bay Resiliency Initiative in San Francisco; Hong Kong’s Salisbury Gardens and Avenue of the Stars; Shanghai’s Taupu Central Park and the West Bund Arts District and Waterfront; Shenzhen’s City of Qianhai; and the Cultural Arts District and Central Park in Doha.
