It’s In Denver’s Nature

Denver Community Media in collaboration with Denver Parks and Recreation has embarked on a mini-series that explores the ways Denver is creating a more resilient parks and recreation system that can support the health of a growing city while investing in the fight against climate change.

In Episode Two of "It's in Denver's Nature" Mundus Bishop principal Tina Bishop joins fellow Denver-based landscape architect Bill Wenk of Wenk Associates alongside DPR’s Gordon Robertson and Cincere Eades. The conversation dives into the history of Denver Parks beginning in the 19th century when early city leaders sought to make Denver a more livable place by creating a robust system of green space. More than 100 years later, park design is impacted by new challenges including climate change.
