Landscape Design/Architects

Can someone recommend a landscape designer/architect for a backyard in Crown Heights? I saw an earlier post with a few recs but looking for more. My project will include covering lead dirt, adding a steel deck, busting open a window and turning it into a door. Pretty comprehensive project, not for the average gardener. Open to any and all recs and suggestions. Thanks!

@carriagehouse99 You mention 3 specialty contractors that work as a team arranged by Susan. Do you have Susan’s contact info?

For example: Tom C. of Brooklyn Gardens for landscaping, Susan B. H. of Sketch & Hammer for building decks along with Ricardo F. of Piccollo Iron for structural foundations and Greg R. for punching out doors are 3 specialty contractors that work as a team arranged by Susan. Jon Ott is an associate architect.

Yeah you need an architect, a contractor and a landscaper at a minimum. A gardener has nothing to do with building a deck or changing a window to a door. Also be aware that adding a door may trigger an Alt1 (change of egress).

You’re looking for different trades and specialities. No one contractor can or should do all those jobs
