James Corner Field Operations is a leading-edge landscape architecture and urban design practice based in New York City and London. The practice is renowned for strong contemporary design across a variety of project types and scales, from large urban districts and complex post-industrial sites, to small well-crafted, detail design projects. In all of the work, there is a special commitment to the design of a vibrant and dynamic public realm, informed by the ecology of both people and nature.
Major projects include the design of the High Line, New York City; Fresh Kills Park, Staten Island; City Center, Las Vegas; Shelby Farms Park, Memphis; The Race Street Pier, Philadelphia; Civic Center Parks, Santa Monica; Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London; Chicago’s Navy Pier; Qianhai Water City, China; Central Waterfront, Seattle; and the Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront in Hong Kong.
