Riverbend Park


2GHO is responsible for the landscape architectural services for the Riverbend Park nature center and the parking lot improvement and expansion, located within Palm Beach County, just west of Indiantown Road and Florida Turnpike.  The firm worked with a team of professionals to assist in determining the location of the nature center facility.  This was a delicate task due to the fact that this historic park was once the site of Seminole War battles, and is home to ancient Indian middens and other artifacts.  The park is developing into a jewel among the county’s facilities and hosts pioneer events that maintain a connection to our past.  In keeping with the environmental value of the land and its natural eco-systems as part of the most southern Scenic River, the Loxahatchee River, our dry retention areas are fully planted and therefore are state of the art bio retention.  Our team is proud to play a part in the on-going improvements to the 680 acre park.
