OUR L ARGE SCALE MIXED -USE practice creates
sustainable and unique buildings and places for people that respond to their setting and reflect local culture and context. We emphasize how buildings work together to create great urban places that make up the public realm, enhancing the pedestrian experience. We strive for transformative ideas and, in doing so, we instill long-term value. We orchestrate teams to creatively balance complex technical requirements, resulting in designs that transcend individual uses, achieve a unique coherence, and produce long-term economic value.

COLLABORATION
is fundamental to our practice. The Large Scale Mixed-use team at Perkins Eastman comprises more than 75 staff with diverse skills in a range of urban design typologies, including: large-scale urban design, campus planning and campus edge (town-gown), waterfront development and revitalization, downtown redevelopment, resiliency planning, and transit-oriented development. Our approach synthesizes the goals of the client and the project’s potential with our deep understanding of how to make the visionary real. This ability to successfully collaborate with our clients produces cities, places, and buildings that are authentic and timeless and that enrich humanity.

NEW LIFE TO WATERFRONTS
Waterfronts The evolving relationship between the city and the water’s edge poses one of the great design challenges of our time. As industrial uses have receded, cities around the world have sought to create a sustainable
vision for a post-industrial waterfront. Our experience in designing waterfronts throughout the world has taught us that great waterfronts begin with understanding the water itself.

TRANSIT AS PLACE
Target Field Station Minneapolis, MN, USA

Transportation Development In the continuing debate about how to rebuild our nation’s infrastructure and chart a more sustainable pattern of growth for our cities, transit has emerged as a central theme. Our commitment to designing for transit is based on our view that a transit station should be part of the fabric of the community around it rather
than a standalone architectural icon. History has shown us that integrating transit facilities into the surrounding city fabric is not only key to increasing transit ridership, but it also increases the long-term value of the transit properties and those around them.

NEW DOWNTOWN ENVIRONMENTS

Downtown Revitalization The migration back to America’s downtowns in the last decade represents a sea change for urbanism. Over the course of this movement, we have played a leadership role in creating bold visions, crafting creative strategies, and building
consensus for center cities and small towns alike. Cities continually evolve through cycles of change and renewal that are driven by everything from major infrastructure to changes in the market and, increasingly, to the desire to develop more
sustainable patterns of living. We see these changes as opportunities. Our approach builds on what already exists and focuses on the small-scale and on how to make the visionary real.

TRANSCENDING INDIVIDUAL USES
Retail and Entertainment Mixed-use is one of the oldest patterns of human settlement. It is also one of the most challenging to develop. The best examples of mixed-use can produce an overall vision that integrates the individual
parts, producing a sum that is much greater. We have the vision to create mixed-use developments that transcend individual uses, achieve an overall coherence, and produce long-term economic value.

REALIZING THE VISION
New Communities As the basic building blocks of the community, residential buildings must be designed to endure— prevailing through market cycles, lifestyle changes, and design fads. We believe that great places are the key to creating the quality residential addresses that attract people and families and generate lasting value.
26
Our approach starts with an acute awareness of how residential buildings can both contribute to and benefit from the public realm. This approach has proven successful in designing buildings that create a memorable image and compelling brand for both new and existing communities.
