On Wednesday and Thursday, 9 placemaking experts gathered at the Workforce Innovation Skills Hub (W.I.S.H.) at the Hybla Valley Community Center for a Technical Assistance Panel to help guide placemaking efforts along the Richmond Highway Corridor. The Panel was impressed by the stakeholders’ passion for placemaking strategies that are authentic and strategic and support local businesses. After two days of deliberations, the Panel presented its recommendations for a replicable approach to placemaking that prioritized the identity and local experience of the 5 CBCs along the corridor and promoted unity through connection. Thank you so much to our wonderful Panel Chair Nkosi Yearwood, our panelists Nastasia Buckley, Connie Fan, Maria Lashinger, P.E., PTOE, Ellen McCarthy, Anna McCorvey, RA, Rob Meeks, Shane Pomajambo, Steven Segerlin, and our sponsor Evan Kaufman with the Southeast Fairfax Development Corporation (SFDC), and JoAnne Fiebe, Elizabeth Hagg, and Nicholas Rinehart from Fairfax County for their invaluable support in making this TAP come to fruition!

Transformative place-making. Superior services.
About us
LSG is a Women, Minority Owned Small Business. Established in 1985, LSG believes in place making that is smart, sustainable, creative, and transformational. Our expertise includes master planning, site design, environmental assessments, and landscape architecture. Our portfolio includes projects throughout the Eastern Seaboard, China, and India. Our design approach embraces the notion that we can say something new while maintaining a dialogue with the past. Whether we are seeking to enliven, guide, heal, educate, or inspire, our goal is to create engaging sense of place in which to live, work, or play, because, above all, landscape architecture is a social construct. Whether the aesthetic vision is shaped by the dictates of urbanity or driven by a more pastoral imperative, the result should be informed and elevated by something larger.

Thank you, Sanika for all your hard work and curiosity this summer! We wish you the very best as you head back to school!
Very recently I completed my summer internship for the year 2023 at LSG Landscape Architecture. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Amol Deshpande, RLA, AICP, LEED Green Associate and Connie Fan for giving me this opportunity. The time I spent at the firm was enriching and helped me grow as a designer in many ways. The scope of work that I was involved in was new and a great learning exercise. I was assigned a variety of tasks like #3dmodeling, #rendering, drafting of details, working on #specifications and also #liaising with people in the field. The internship was a wholesome experience and gave me a taste of all the processes that go towards the completion of a project from its initiation. As an architectural student I was aware of some skills which I was able to harness, along with understanding the requirements of landscaping in a project and its various aspects and details that need to be looked into for a project to be complete. The work environment, encouragement and the positive feedback were key factors to making this internship a memorable experience.
