Principal
Landscape Architect L. Andrew Franke

Andy’s road to landscape architecture began with summer tree care and landscape work where he discovered an appreciation of design and the natural built environment.  As a founding member and principal of PDS, he leads project development activities including site inventory, site analysis, planning, design development, environmental permitting, recreation master planning, and construction documentation.

 

Andy  is eager to pursue sustainable practices through his extensive knowledge of arboriculture and to preserve trees during site development and construction.  His professional experience includes completed designs for Saint Louis University, Laclede’s Landing Redevelopment Corporation, the Saint Louis Zoo, the Cities of Webster Groves, Kirkwood and Brentwood, and many others. When not working, Andy enjoys listening music, classic cars, and fishing.
