With great sadness, we announce the passing of Sara Bradford, a devoted member of the Rhode Island landscape architecture community. Registered with license number 02, Sara’s years of contributions to beloved public spaces and her relationships with friends, peers, and collaborators will inspire future generations to celebrate natural and open spaces.
From her obituary: “During her 60-year career in Landscape Architecture, Sara contributed to countless municipal, state, and residential projects. Some of Sara’s most notable contributions include Patriots Park in Portsmouth, RI, Hunt’s Mills Recreation Area in East Providence, RI and the Ten Mile River Greenway. However, projects closest to her heart were those right in her own East Side neighborhood. She worked on numerous landscape improvement projects at Brown University, the First Baptist Church in America, Prospect Terrace, North Burial Ground, and Benefit Street. Upon her “retirement” at the age of 80, Sara continued to consult, serve on several boards and volunteer her time to support the causes that were important to her including the American Society of Landscape Architects, RI Tree Council, Board of Examiners of Landscape Architects, and the Mile of History Association.”
Friends and family will be holding a celebration of life on April 19th at 1:00 p.m. at the First Unitarian Church - 1 Benevolent Street, Providence, RI 02906.
