We're proud to share that River Trails School District 26 was one of 13 honorees recognized by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Efficient and Healthy Schools program at the 2024 White House Summit for Sustainable and Healthy K-12 School Buildings and Grounds! The district was celebrated for its leadership in creating energy-efficient, climate-resilient, and healthy school environments. TERRA had the privilege of contributing to this effort by providing landscape architecture services for a nature playground at a renovated public preschool and kindergarten in Mount Prospect. The project transformed a former parking lot into a dynamic play area, incorporating natural elements like wood equipment, outcropping stones and native plantings, creating a space that fosters both learning and play.

We love seeing St. Francis Milwaukee Church in full bloom! #TeamTERRA enhanced the site with a new Narthex addition and adjacent parking for residents, staff and parishioners. The parking lot features both asphalt and permeable pavers, offering a sustainable solution through green design and water detention. Our landscape team also designed two courtyards around the Narthex addition, blending the new architecture with the existing landscape. Special thanks to the project architect, MKB Architects, for the stunning photos!
