Tree Urban Design Studio

Something good is taking root at Parham Bridges.

On Wednesday, June 17th, we’re planting a wildflower garden with community members, volunteers, and project partners as part of our ongoing redevelopment of the park and continued investment in native landscapes and pollinator habitat.

A big thank you to the Garden Club of Jackson for making this happen alongside us.

Join us from 1:30-3:00PM at the north parking lot, 5055 Old Canton Road.

This past week our team began work in Stone County, Missouri, visiting communities to study and document existing gathering spaces, parks, trails, landscape conditions, infrastructure, and development patterns.

Located in the Ozark region near the center of the United States, Stone County is defined by an incredible landscape, rich history, and local culture shaped by recreation, tourism, and rural community traditions.

We look forward to the opportunity to listen, learn, and explore how parks, trails, and community gathering spaces can be strengthened and supported for the county’s future.

The Pearl River Flood Control Project is moving forward, marking an important step toward integrated flood protection, public access, and ecological restoration along the Pearl River.

We are encouraged by this outcome after advocating alongside community partners, the Rankin Hinds Flood Control District, and the Pearl River Revitalization Coalition. Throughout the process, we supported an approach that pairs flood risk reduction with green infrastructure, native wetland systems, and a connected network of parks, trails, and riverfront public spaces.

The approved plan allows for new access points to the Pearl River, restores floodplain function, and establishes the foundation for a future Riverfront District in Downtown Jackson that reconnects the urban core to the river while improving resilience to flood events. As the project advances, this work creates an opportunity to reconnect Jackson and surrounding communities to the Pearl River through public access and a more resilient riverfront that supports both people and the environment.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the ONELINE Corridor Development Study open house! If you missed the event, you still have time to share your thoughts on the draft street and development ideas we shared!

Take the online survey now at onelinejxn.com/survey to check out the concepts and tell us what you think. The survey will be open through mid-January.
