All round the world, AECOM’s planners and architects are working hard to develop new urban landscapes and buildings. Our work ranges from the creation of 21st century urban spaces, streetscapes, plazas and waterfronts, to the preservation of historic landscapes and monuments, with additional services that include landscape architecture, master planning and urban design, environmental planning and economic, social and cultural development.
The need to create sustainable communities, landscapes and environments underpins every aspect of our urban planning and design work. And whether we’re involved in the development of a million-acre site or a small green space in a city center, our approach remains the same – to protect and conserve the environment by encouraging the appropriate use of resources.
Tokyo Midtown
Tokyo, Japan
The 25-acre Tokyo Midtown Project is a world-class mixed use complex where AECOM served as master landscape architects.
The landscape design of the project marks a significant shift in Japanese development, as over 50 percent of the site’s land stands as open or green space. AECOM’s design for “the greenbelt walkway” recalls the history of the site and the stream that once flowed across it, focusing on traditional Japanese influences with contemporary design elements in a series of gardens and fountains linked together by a braided walkway.
