Oklahoma City’s Scissortail Park recently won the Engineering News-Record (ENR) Texas & Louisiana‘s “Best Project” award in the Landscape/ Urban Development category. The park was designed by Hargreaves Associates in collaboration with Butzer Architects and Urbanism (BAU), which led design of the park’s buildings. Gibbs College Dean Hans E. Butzer and his wife, Torrey Butzer, are principals of BAU.
The park was submitted to this year’s contest by the City of Oklahoma City (OKC), and was selected as one of only 18 ENR “Best Projects” from over 130 entries. Scissortail Park is located in downtown OKC, and the first 36-acres of the 70-acre design opened last September, 2019.
