HTPO has been designing outdoor community gathering and recreational spaces since 1980. Our parks and trails project experience includes the full range of professional services: civil engineering, surveying, landscape architecture, construction inspection/observation, and construction staking. Our designs complement the existing environment of each site to provide aesthetically pleasing projects for city parks, corporate campuses, and municipal streets.
