The Huntington Shopping Center in Huntington, NY has received a Real Estate, Architecture, and Engineering Award from Long Island Business News (LIBN), winning in the Top Retail Development Category. The awards honor those who help create and build Long Island’s future, including recognizing landmark projects and developments.
The shopping center was transformed from a strip mall into an upscale retail destination that stands out as a unique shopping experience intended for everyday needs. We served as landscape architecture consultant, designing new ornamental planting beds to separate shopping areas from adjacent driveways, seating areas with decorative fountains, and other sculptural elements that create welcome surprises in the landscape. Shoppers are welcomed to the plaza with a cluster of Ginkgo trees and a prominent sign feature, creating a one-of-a-kind feel for this retail center.
Project team members included Federal Realty Investment Trust, SBLM Architects P.C., E.W. Howell, R&M Engineering, TDM Consulting Engineers, and MG Engineering D.P.C.
Award winners will be celebrated on June 18, 2024, at the LIBN awards dinner in Woodbury, NY.
