Once an underused park in an underserved area, Kincaide Park is now a model park for the City of Quincy and case study in how to improve an area by altering its conditions. The renovation was informed by community engagement. Neighbors wanted a safe park with amenities that appealed to all generations and would encourage activity day and night. Lighting played a role in meeting those goals. Bishop Land Design (BLD) turned to Landscape Forms for assistance with photometrics and fixture selection. Arne multi-fixture area lights allowed BLD to precisely position light. Neighbors now comfortably access all areas of the park day and night, improving safety by increasing use.

 

The 2023 Lighting Issue of Landscape Architect and Specifier News saw many firms submit their projects for feature consideration. This project was not chosen for a Feature in the issue, but we at LandscapeArchitect.com thought the project deserved to be showcased online . . .
