Field Operations designed the master plan for Fresh Kills Park in Staten Island, New York from 2003 to present. The 2,200 acre park will transform a closed landfill site nearly three times the size of Central Park into a major new park for New York City over the next 30 years, incorporating over 1,000 acres of former landfill and 450 acres of wetlands with views of Manhattan.

throw away, Freshkills Park comprises over 1,000 acres of closed landfill and 450
acres of important wetland framed by spectacular views of downtown Manhattan.
This award-winning Master Plan vision, for this 2,200 acre park designed by Field
Operations, will guide the transformation from landfill to parklands over the next
30 years. The park is owned and operated by the NYC Department of Parks &
