Tribute: M. Paul Friedberg (1931–2025)

In a remembrance, Charles A. Birnbaum, president and CEO of The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF), described the “unique approach” taken by his close friend (and former employer) to playground design: “a carefully choreographed series of simple, sculptural landscape vignettes that included a tree house, mounds, and a tunnel—all allowing for, and encouraging physical, emotional and sensory exercise and participation.”
