AECOM's NYC Landscape Architecture and Urban Design (LAUD) studio leads design and innovation focused on the intersection of large-scale infrastructure and placemaking. the team's approach is driven by collaborative efforts between clients, communities, engineers, collaborators, landscape architects, and urban designers throughout the project lifecycle. At the forefront of design, engagement, infrastructure, and technology, its core mission is to deliver implementable solutions that promote the sustainable use of resources, address climate adaptation challenges, and create resilient futures.

The work's objective is to continually enhance quality of life through thoughtfully designed public spaces and experiences. The scope of our practice is reflected in the creation of vibrant, healthy, and sustainable environments—including ecologically sensitive landscapes, parks, waterfronts, greenways, streetscapes, squares, plazas, and everything in between.
