Bioengineering: Earth-focused Design February 28, 2013

Duke Bitsko of the Bioengineering Group will speak about bioengineering, an interdisciplinary approach to site and resource protection in the built environment. With a strong land stewardship ethic, Duke applies degrees in landscape architecture, engineering, and earth science to development planning and design. With each project, the indigenous water cycle and watershed protection are the first considerations. Learn about his approach as applied to local projects including Walden Pond, Pope John Paul II Park, Magazine Beach, and the Watertown Arsenal. (Refreshments at 6pm; Lecture at 6:30pm.)
Offered with the Boston Society of Landscape Architects
