Summary:
For sixty years Fletcher Steele practiced landscape architecture as a fine art, designing nearly seven hundred gardens, from Boston to Detroit, and New Brunswick, Canada, to Asheville, North Carolina. Often brilliant, always original, Steele’s work is considered by many to constitute the essential link between nineteenth-century Beaux-Arts formalism and modern landscape design.

With an introduction by curator Karen Kice, discover Brown's work through a deep dive into his seminal projects for New York, Chicago, and Detroit. ''Recurrent visions'' journeys into the cities, places, and spaces of the future crafted by the hands of today, with contributions from today's leading architectural thinkers, Monica Ponce de Leon, Joseph Becker, Allison Glenn, and Adrienne Brown, featuring three projects: UNITY Plan for the MTA Vanderbilt Rail Yards, Brooklyn; Dequindre Civic Academy, Detroit; Smooth Growth Urbanism, Chicago.
