It's no doubt that COVID-19 has created some challenges in our industry. Many professionals have expressed their situations and solutions, including Principals from Andropogon: https://landscapearchitecturemagazine.org//a-spring-of-su/

Today we're celebrating Juneteenth, a day that commemorates the effective end of slavery in the United States. We encourage our colleagues and friends to spend time today honoring this milestone. Let's continue to advance our efforts towards freedom and equality.

We're excited to see one of our favorite local spots opening for outdoor dining this weekend! If you stop by, be sure to check out the surrounding Transit-Oriented green infrastructure in the heart of West Philadelphia.

The recent protests that are occurring across America (and beyond) as a result of the horrific death of George Floyd, and the countless ones before him, is a call to action for us all. As with nature, diversity is what makes our natural environment and our communities, healthy, resilient, and beautiful. Andropogon believes in a diverse community that is equitable and without prejudice in any form. We believe that cultural diversity should be celebrated, not oppressed. We s...erve to be a positive part of the social transformation needed to heal the heart and soul of our nation. We must reach out to our neighbors, listen with compassion, open our hearts, use our voices, and work together for equality and justice. We can be part of positive change.

In partnership with MGA Architects, we have continued to make progress on the 25-acre campus at Central High School in Philadelphia, PA. A formerly neglected portion of the site is being revived with significant landscape improvements, an outdoor STEM classroom, and a new, accessible parking lot. . . #andropogon #andropogonassociates #architecture #landscapearchitecture #landscapedesign #design #thisislandscapearchitecture #philly #philadelphia #stem #stemeducation #learning

At Andropogon, we envision a world with an abundance of beautiful, equitable, and healthy places that respect the past, understand the present, and expand possibilities for future generations. Through our work, we responsibly transform environments and the communities within. With climate action being the theme of #EarthDay2020, we continue to consider the ways in which we can make our vision a reality, researching and designing our landscapes to positively impact the environment and counteract the ongoing issues surrounding climate change. We wish you all a safe and healthy Earth Day! . . . #Andropogon #AndropogonAssociates #Earthday #earth #climatechange #landscape #landscapearchitecture #landscapedesign

I think we can all agree, Mondays are a little "ruff."

We would like to take this time to express our gratitude to our clients, colleagues, family, and friends who are serving on the frontline during this unforeseen pandemic. To the healthcare professionals, essential workers, volunteers, and everyone in between, we thank you immensely for your bravery, courage, and service. We will continue to hope for your safety and wellness.
