PIATT PARK ON GARFIELD PLACE

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

 

Located downtown, Piatt Park is Cincinnati’s oldest public park. A master plan was created to include public spaces, future housing, and retail development within a four block area. It was designed as a catalyst for development. The park’s formal design, with central promenade, sitting spaces, and lush landscape, recalls the historic park layout.

 

Contemporary fountains, plazas for two historic presidential  sculptures, and a garden cafe were created. This serves as a place for small street fairs, luncheon walks, and as the “front yard” for new downtown housing.  Mr. Meisner worked extensively on this project while he was a partner at BMA Inc.
