The concept of B.C.I.T's site was to create a park like environment for an industrial research site. The site was surrounded by a woodland and included a wetland. To reflect the existing condition of her landscape design, Oberlander added a rentention pool and a restored woodland, creating a urban forest using native plants. The project was completed in 1982.
