One month ago today Western Australia's city of Perth celebrated the opening of Elizabeth Quay; a waterfront redevelopment project that Penndesign's Landscape Architecture chair, Richard Weller, helped design. When asked about this large project Richard replied:
"It should give the city a new lease of life," says Weller. "Like many cities around the world, Perth was divorced from its waterfront. The city had been trying to reconnect back to its river for over 100 years, and for a long time it looked like our design would go the way of all the others. But the government had some money from the recent mineral boom in that part of the world, so they decided to finally go for it."
