TOUR SITES* Wetland Boardwalk, Eloise Butler Wild�ower Garden

Design: David Motzenbecker, Motz Studios, LLC

The Eloise Butler Wild8ower Garden, established in 1907, was the =rst public wild8ower garden in the United States. The much needed and newly designed boardwalk features a unique curved modular system that allows for ease of assembly and quick

directional changes. Additional pieces include benches, bridge railings and camera posts, and future interpretive signage, all designed for easy assemblage into the existing boardwalk frame. The entire assembly rests easy on the land, as to not disturb the gentle ecosystem embedded within the garden. This project was completed when Motzenbecker was with Cuningham Group.

Renn Backyard Project Design: Meg Arnosti, Southview Design

This backyard design merges functional outdoor living space with a simple, naturalistic setting. Southview’s landscape architect, Meg Arnosti, took great care to accommodate the homeowners’ wishes by blending new features into the existing yard.

Homeowners’ wish list:

• Address erosion/drainage issues; create entertainment spaces under the deck and a =re pit patio; create a natural-looking stream/waterfall and pond with native =sh and plants for a 8y-=shing homeowner.

Design elements include:

• Natural stone patio and =re pit; cascading waterfall and pond with native =sh; outdoor living room tucked under the deck; a natural forest palette.

This garden is the result of a team e+ort rooted in the homeowner’s vision to create (1) a setting =tting to the 1905 Arts & Crafts home (2) a garden respectful of the location on the

shore of Lake Minnetonka. Three landscape architecture

classmates collaborated on the designs. The garden was recently added to the Smithsonian Gardens: Archives of American Gardens

Serene Vista with Creekside View Design: Je& Ga&ney, Tabor Landscape Group

The area of work had an existing view of Minnehaha Creek. The desire was to optimize the view and multiple platforms to view from. The client was adamant to having di+erent areas and spaces from which to gather for entertaining and family

time. The existing veranda was a catalyst and an inspiration for the views and material selections. The patio adjacent to the veranda was laid in the same pattern as the veranda using blue stone as its body with soft angulating walkway with a new weathered pavestone. The opportunity arose while setting grades and elevations to set the new patio slightly higher than the previous patio so as not to have the need for a railing at the upper veranda – which was determined to be an obstructed view to the creek. The terracing allowed us to cradle natural stone steps to stay in sync with the use of natural stone and more organic 8ow.

Garden Isle Design: Michael Keenan, Urban Ecosystems

This property features an array of gardens that act as stage for a curated collection of commissioned sculptures. The home, a Milo Thompson design, is energetically geometric. This geometry extends to the landscape. Drawing inspiration from the

islands o+shore, a series of =ve ellipses planted with native grasses display stone and steel sculptures. The garden plantings present a 8owing rhythm of monocultural islands and diverse waves of 8owering perennials that introduces a living dynamic to the property.

Hall’s Island Renovation Concept Design: Tom Leader Studio;

Engineering + Final Planting Design: Barr

Engineering

The Minneapolis Park & Rec. Board led a team to reconstruct Hall’s Island, which was destroyed by industrial development in the 1960s. The MWMO joined with

several partners helping to fund the restoration of the island, which will provide a unique new park amenity and a rich source of habitat along the Mississippi River. The site was excavated to create a new back channel that re-separated the 2-acre island from the mainland. In the process, 1,000 linear feet of armored shoreline was transformed into nearly 3,000 feet of habitat-rich shoreline. The new island features an array of native vegetation to support local wildlife and provide a safe stopover for birds migrating along the Mississippi Flyway. The reconstruction of Hall’s Island is complete, although habitat restoration is ongoing.
