海军公墓景观创造了景观和种植形式的体验,提供撤退,记忆和观察,同时纪念分层的200年历史。该站点是19世纪末和20世纪初在布鲁克林海军大厦综合楼的一个未标记的墓地现在是布鲁克林绿道的第一个开放空间节点。纪念草地和神圣的树林由不受干扰的地面上升起的起伏的木板路围拢 – 牛弩般的木板路漂浮在密集的草和船的海上。纪念草地的种植重点是为许多被遗忘的传染媒介建立了许多被遗忘的授粉媒介,对该地区的生态健康至关重要,包括蝴蝶,本地和蜜蜂以及授粉蛾。

最初以严格的几何图案种植,并通过框架加固,播种将最终漂浮在现场,创造新的模式,并建立自我维持的“开放式”生态。记忆框架 – 概述植物原始几何块的钢丝绳雕塑作品 – 将作为记录植物群落随时间的动态变化的基准而成为一种物理形式的纪念。

海军公墓景观以其朴实的风格提供了一个重要的和平,避难和安静的地方 – 建筑环境中丰富的生态绿洲。布鲁克林布鲁克林风景低调的景观,静静地参与了该地区的历史和景点,为其居民带来了好处。新公园作为社区建设者,作为邻居活动的主办方,如瑜伽,冥想和生态课程。它使公众了解传粉者栖息地在城市环境中的重要性,象征性地将许多形式的生活吸引到历史上纪念死亡的地方。景观探索其生态潜力,与其密集设计的城市环境形成鲜明对比。

The Naval Cemetery Landscape creates an experience of landscape and planted form offering retreat, remembrance, and engaged observation while honoring a layered, 200 year history. The site, an unmarked burial ground from the late 19th and early 20th centuries at the Brooklyn Navy Yard complex is now the first open space node along the Brooklyn Greenway. A memorial meadow and sacred grove are framed by an undulating boardwalk lifted above the undisturbed ground – the oxbow-like boardwalks float over the sea of dense grasses and forbs. The plantings of the memorial meadow focus on establishment of much needed native plant fodder for the many forgotten pollinators critical to ecological health of the region, including butterflies, native and honey bees, and pollinator moths.

Initially planted in a strict geometric pattern and reinforced by frames, the plantings will eventually drift across the site, creating new patterns and establishing a self-sustaining, ‘open-ended’ ecology. The remembrance frames – steel cable sculptural pieces that outline the original geometric blocks of plants – will remain in place as a datum that records the dynamic movement of the plant communities over time and becomes a physical form of remembrance.

Striking in its simplicity, the Naval Cemetery Landscape provides an important place of peace, refuge, and quiet – a rich ecological oasis in the built environment. This understated landscape in Brooklyn quietly engages the site’s history and place for the benefit of its inhabitants. The new park acts as a community builder as host to neighborhood activity like yoga, meditation, and ecology classes. It engages the public in the importance of pollinator habitat in the urban environment, symbolically attracting many forms of life to a place that has historically commemorated death. The landscape explores its ecological potential by offering a stark contrast to its densely engineered urban context.
