Scott is a Senior Associate and key member of the MVVA creative team. He has led the schematic and conceptual design phases of many projects, including the Pier 54 Performance Pier at Hudson River Park in New York City and MVVA's design of North Grant Park in Chicago. He is uniquely skilled at translating program and concepts into plan and physical form, and the spatial distribution of program as part of landscape design. Scott is an avid rock climber and has been a proponent of including rock climbing programming in MVVA park designs. He has contributed to the design and construction documentation of Jacob K. Javits Plaza in New York City, several Brooklyn Bridge Park projects including the Pier One Hotel and Condos, Pier 6, Pier 3 and Pier 4 Uplands, the DEP conversion site, and the Squibb Bridge landscape. Scott has also served as lead designer and project manager for many smaller scale garden projects including Jardin Matisse in Quebec, the Willow Street Garden in Brooklyn, and the Koi Project in Baton Rouge, LA.
