Acknowledgments
A depth of appreciation is due first and foremost to Michael Van Valkenburgh for participating with wit
and wisdom in the inaugural Glimcher Distinguished Visiting Professorship seminar. With customary
insight that provoked students to strengthen their understanding of built landscapes, Michael set the bar
high for all involved. The honesty of opinion and design leadership that impressed us as graduate students
in the early 1990s continue to be hallmarks of Michael’s impact on contemporary landscape architecture.
We are fortunate to have a project such as the Allegheny Riverfront Park to serve not just as the subject
of the first Source Book in Landscape Architecture but as an inspiring model for urban park-making today.
Many thanks to the combined talents of Michael Van Valkenburgh, Laura Solano, and Matthew Urbanski
of Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates (MVVA), artists Ann Hamilton and Michael Mercil, and Carol
Brown of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust.
A roundtable discussion on the Allegheny Riverfront Park was held at the Knowlton School of
Architecture in 2002. Threads of discussion opened there proved important to this publication. In addi-
tion to the design team named above, I am grateful for the commentaries of the invited critics Ethan Carr,
Erik de Jong, and Gary Hilderbrand (whose comments and essay, respectively, appear in this book). Thanks
also to the students who participated in the seminar: Jeff Anderson, Eric Brightman, Jennifer Caputa, Lin
Goepfert, Tim Hess, Indy Idvakil, Kris Lucius, Anne McKisson, Gabriela Patocchi, Adam Ravestein, and
especially Jason Brabbs for videography and Jill McKain and Cheryl Somerfeldt for written contributions.
These books would not be possible without the support of many at the Knowlton School of
Architecture and the generous patronage of the Glimchers. The encouragement of Robert Livesey is essen-
tial to the program. Advice offered by Jeff Kipnis and Todd Gannon was helpful in producing the first
Source Book in Landscape Architecture. At MVVA, Jane Glazier, Jason Siebenmorgen, Gullivar Shepard,
and Matt McMahon were instrumental in the book’s production. Finally, the editorial guidance of Megan
Carey and Kevin Lippert at Princeton Architectural Press is much appreciated.
