Harbor East Streetscape & Promenade, Baltimore, Md.
Located just beyond Baltimore's famous Inner Harbor, Harbor East is one of Baltimore's fastest-growing communities comprised of waterfront residential and office buildings, luxurious new hotels, and upscale shopping and dining. Sited along President Street and circling the National Katyn Memorial, three blocks were flagged for a streetscape redevelopment by the city who retained Floura Teeter to perform landscape design for three separate contracts associated with the project. Design includes a mix of new brick sidewalks, lighting, detailed brick paving at the building entries, new street trees, tree grates, and ADA-accessible ramps. The landscape architects worked with the engineers and contractors to determine tree and lighting locations based on existing and proposed utility locations.

Penn Street, Reading, Pa.
Initiated through the EPA's Making a Visible Difference in Communities program, the goal of Greening Reading's Penn Street Corridor was to develop an innovative and implementable vision for a distinctive and ecologically functional streetscape that incorporates green infrastructure, facilitates bicycle connections between the existing trails along the Schuylkill River and City Park and enriches the pedestrian experience. In coordination with the EPA, Floura Teeter worked with the City of Reading and its citizens, and the Reading Redevelopment Authority to create the plan for improvements along one mile of this historic main street.
