LUC has worked with a large multi-disciplinary team to deliver a sustainable infrastructure and development masterplan to guide the long term transformation of Shawfield in Glasgow’s East End. LUC also led the design and implementation of an advanced phase of public realm and landscape works that now forms a framework for new development to be realised over a 20-25year horizon.
Prior to construction the site was heavily contaminated and consisted of large areas of vacant and derelict land together with dated business and industrial premises. The site was completely cleared and underwent significant ground remediation in advance of the public realm works to ensure the site is ‘development ready’.
LUC developed a green infrastructure strategy to inform the masterplan design with an emphasis on integrated surface water drainage and pedestrian connectivity to surrounding communities, transport nodes and the River Clyde corridor.
The Clyde riverbanks have been manipulated to provide new pedestrian and cycling infrastructure and this now provides an extension to the strategically important Clyde Walkway.
An ecologically diverse mosaic of riparian woodland, grassland and wetland habitats has been created that will improve the biodiversity of the River Clyde corridor.
A new strategic pedestrian and cycling link has been created linking the new South Dalmarnock Smart Bridge with the centre of the masterplan site, improving connectivity in the area. In contrast with the more naturalistic riverside treatment this link is more formal in character with strong tree avenue planting, lighting and paving patterns.

This chapter is finally complete. Its surreal. I spent the last 7 months in a whirlwind of getting family matters in order along with aiding in selling this house . . . . I had moments of not being sure I would see this day now its here. . . *pinches self* maybe it will sink in tomorrow.

I'm almost done with four chapters of The Bell Jar at the moment – a wonderful read by an amazing writer!
Billy Collins is picked up and browsed regularly. I often laugh out loud reading his brilliantly witty observations.
Krakauer is a wonderful writer and this book is an incredibly enlightening look at the fringe-splinter sects of the Church of the Latter Day Saints, as well as a historical glimpse of the Church's founding.
Thomas Cahill won me over with How The Irish Saved Civilization and I have enjoyed all of his "Hinges Of History" series. He writes in a very conversational style, not the typically dry style you might expect from books of an academic nature.
I received Ex Libris from a friend – it's a series of essays celebrating the joys of reading.
Spoon River Anthology is a series of poems originally publisked in 1915. The poems are short monologues spoken by those who reside in a graveyard in a small community in southern Illinois. The collection raised a few eyebrows at the time it was published as it was a bit of a commentary on the societal mores of the community. I first learned of this book after hearing Michael Smith's wonderful song, "Spoon River":
SPOON RIVER
All of the riverboat gamblers are losing their shirts
And all of the brave Union soldier boys sleep in the dirt
But you know and I know there never was reason to hurt
When all of our lives were entwined to begin with
Here in Spoon River
All of the calico dresses, the gingham and lace
Are up in the attic with grandfather's derringer case
There's words whispered down in the hallway, a shadowy face
The morning is heavy with one more beginning
Here in Spoon River
Come to the dance, Mary Perkins, I like you right well
The Union's preserved, if you listen, you'll hear all the bells
There must be a heaven, the Lord knows I've seen mostly hell
My rig is outside, come and ride through the morning
Here in Spoon River
The other week we finished Model Builder 101, our training course at work.
We've been working on real projects for the past couple weeks, and it's very satisfying. If you visit LLCA in the next month or so, you'll start seeing some of our work. (Hint: they'll be the ones that aren't all faded)
Construction is nearing completion for the County's Emergency Operations & Public Safety Building in Martinez, California.
---
Dreyfuss + Blackford has a specialty practice for Emergency Operations Centers (EOC) and our newest project of this type is for the County of Contra Costa. The County’s new EOC will replace an existing outdated facility. We worked closely with the design architect, Ross Drulis Cusenbery Architecture, to deliver the project to the County and meet their expectations through further refinement of the overall design and production of the final construction documents. We are the Architect of Record through full construction of the facility and it’s occupancy.
This essential service facility is the new Public Safety building which houses the office of the County Sheriff and Command Staff. A state-of-the-art Emergency Situation Room within the EOC is equipped with the highest level of communication technology. Additionally, the new building has a public training and lecture hall with amenities to support media briefings in times of emergency operations and community events.
Contra Costa County’s EOC is designed to operate independently for up to a week in the event of a natural disaster or crisis where city utilities are unable to function. Construction is being sequenced to serve an active occupied County site. In addition to the new facility, the former building is undergoing renovations to be utilized for future County services.
The project is designed to achieve LEED Gold certification.
