James Corner Field Operations is a leading-edge landscape architecture and urban design practice based in New York City, with offices in San Francisco, Philadelphia, Shenzhen and London. The practice is renowned for strong contemporary design across a variety of project types and scales, from large urban districts and complex post-industrial sites, to small well-crafted, detail design projects. In all of the work, there is a special commitment to the design of a vibrant and dynamic public realm, informed by the ecology of both people and nature.

Major projects in our portfolio include the design of the High Line in New York City; Tongva Park and Ken Genser Square in Santa Monica; Miami Beach’s Lincoln Road; Chicago’s newly redesigned Navy Pier; Cleveland’s Public Square; the Master Plan and subsequent site design of Seattle’s Central Waterfront; Domino Park in Brooklyn; the Cornell Tech Campus in New York; Hong Kong’s Tsim Tsa Tsui Waterfront; and the Presidio Master Plan and Tunnel Tops and Rebuild by Design’s Bay Area Challenge in San Francisco.

Field Operations’ work has been recognized by both peer groups and those outside the field of landscape architecture, receiving multiple awards from the ASLA, the AIA, the ULI, the BALI Awards, Architizer, and the APA; as well as the Smithsonian’s Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum 2010 National Design Award, the New York City Arts Commission Award for Excellence in Design, the American Academy of Arts and Letters Award for Design, the D&AD Black Pencil Award (Gold Medal),  the Daimler-Chrysler Award for Design Innovation; the Architectural League of New York Design Award.
