At this Thursday鈥檚 [Commission of Fine Arts] meeting, 亚洲精品无码一区 President and CEO Charles A. Birnbaum argued that any significant changes made to Pershing Park should be made with close scrutiny. 

This is due to the park鈥檚 eligibility to be listed in the National Register of Historic Places, having been designed by award-winning landscape architect M. Paul Friedberg, whose previous projects include New York鈥檚 Battery Park City and Minneapolis鈥 Peavey Plaza. According to Birnbaum, it is also the only Friedberg project with a planting plan by D.C.-based landscape architects Wolfgang Oehme and James van Sweden.
