The Denver Mountain Park system, constructed between 1912 and 1941, is a significant series of interconnected foothill and mountain parks planned by landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. In 2013, Mountain Parks celebrated its 100th anniversary. Genesee was the first acquired park. RPA's landscape architects led the programming and master plan development for this historic 100 year-old mountain park. The plan set the long-term vision and phasing for restoration, site and trail development, management and economics.

University of Wyoming Laramie

















Through comprehensive planning and design, the landscape architects of Robert Peccia & Associates established a regionally appropriate landscape character for the university. Design influences included the Wyoming's High Plains and Vedauwoo style rock outcrops, which were introduced to establish an identity and overall feeling of a "casual dignity" that pervades the university's built environment.
