If you're attending the Rural Schools Association Summer Conference in Lake Placid next week, Tim and Jessica would love to see you! Please stop by our booth and say hi. We'd love to meet you, hear about your district, and see how our firm can help you achieve your goals! 🙌 #RSANY #Conference

Congratulations to Livonia CSD on the grand opening of its new Transportation Facility! 🎉🚌This new, on-campus facility is a significant improvement for the district as their previous facility was off-site. A central hub allows for improved operations and more sustainable practices. In addition to reduced mileage and fuel consumption because of the on-campus location, the new facility was also designed with provisions for seamless implementation of electric vehicle infrastructure. The new building and site were designed to accommodate the evolving needs of the district. Appel Osborne provided landscape architectural design including expanded parking for the bus fleet, as well as storm water management, pedestrian and vehicular circulation, and site lighting for the facility.

We had the privilege of joining the University of Rochester Medical Center last week for the ribbon cutting ceremony at their new Brighter Days Pediatric Mental Health Urgent Care. ☀️ This facility is the first of its kind in the region and a much needed center for appropriately addressing the needs of children and teens experiencing mental health and behavioral crises. As the landscape architect, a main objective of design was to create an inviting and calming entry that reflects the atmosphere of the building and care program. The entry plaza is accessible from three walkways and has seating areas, open green space lawn areas, natural elements, and colorful plantings to create a welcoming environment and peaceful respite space. It has been truly rewarding to see URMC and the community celebrate this new facility. It was a great privilege for Appel Osborne to be a part of a project that is sure to have a positive impact on the health and wellbeing of children and young adults. Congratulations to URMC on this important and trailblazing accomplishment. 👏

Congratulations to Olean CSD on the ribbon cutting of both their new synthetic turf field athletic complex and adjacent playscape! ✂️🥳 The turf field is designed to accommodate football, soccer, baseball, and softball and is equipped with sports field lighting to adequately support the Olean Huskies athletic programs. The new playscape has a variety of climbing features and other interactive equipment throughout the poured-in-place surfacing. It has been a pleasure working with Young + Wright Architectural and the District to transform these spaces into modern, inviting, and attractive assets for the school and surrounding community. #RibbonCutting #LandscapeArchitecture #K12SiteDesign #AthleticComplexDesign #SyntheticTurf
