jB+a was pleased to be the winning landscape architect for the Wilmington Park and Memorial Competition. The Odeleye Group, consisting of artist Ayokunle Odeleye, Marianne Weinberg-Benson, and the landscape architects at jon Benson + associates, inc., were chosen as the winners for the National 1898 Memorial Competition in Wilmington, North Carolina. The model, built in jB+a studios, represents a blend of landscape architecture, environmental sculpture and public art. This urban park is designed to not only commemorate those fallen in 1898 violence, but to embrace Wilmington’s “reconciliation, healing and the need for human coexistence.” This urban pocket park and memorial will serve as a gateway to a historic African American community.
