\n\tHellendrung is a landscape architect and urban designer with extensive experience as a project manager and senior designer on a wide range of commercial developments, educational projects, and public parks and plazas.

It also won several awards in 2006 for its Providence 2020 Vision Plan.<\/p>\n


\n\tIn his lecture, Hellendrung will cite two major projects he has worked on — the Euclid Avenue Bus Rapid Transit Project in Cleveland and the Charlotte Blue Line Light Rail System in North Carolina \u2013 as examples of \u201chow to address the urban issues that cities are faced with and how they are contributing to shaping the public realm of the cities we live in,\u201d he said.
