New York, NY — The Seaport District is one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in New York City. Located along the East River with incredible views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan’s iconic skyline, this scenic area has become a popular destination for residents and tourists alike. One of the hottest new social destinations in Seaport is The Lawn Club, which offers a unique blend of leisure, recreation, entertainment, and dining. The landscaping design experts at SYNLawn New York helped transform the commercial space into a vibrant, urban green oasis with the installation of eco-friendly landscaping.

Designing an Urban Entertainment Destination

The SYNLawn New York team has transformed hundreds of indoor and outdoor spaces for many notable and famous clients over the years. They’ve become the go-to experts for luxurious and sustainable urban landscaping designs. Through their partnership with the Howard Hughes Corporation and Heitler Houstoun Architects, SYNLawn New York helped create this unique entertainment destination that sets a new standard for city green spaces.

SYNLawn New York collaborated with Heitler Houstoun Architects on the design phase of the project. They envisioned maximizing the 30,000 square feet of building space to create a stylish venue that would mimic a country club experience in the comfort of a temperature-controlled environment.

The primary design objectives of the project were to:

  • Create an inviting atmosphere with an artificial lawn to enhance the club’s appeal. The design features lush green spaces for visitors to relax, socialize, and play lawn games while enjoying food and beverages.
  • Promote sustainability and minimize maintenance by using synthetic turf. Unlike natural lawns, artificial grass does not need to be watered, and no harmful pesticides or fertilizers are necessary for upkeep.

Reinventing the Space with Sustainable and Resilient Turf Solutions

For all of their projects, SYNLawn New York provides clients with landscaping solutions that prioritize sustainability, aesthetics, and functionality. The installation process for this project involved careful planning to accommodate the structural elements of the interior flooring to ensure the artificial lawn would be visually appealing as well as durable and functional.

The installation serves as the centerpiece of the Lawn Club. The following synthetic surfacing products were used to create a resilient and beautiful lawn installation that enhances the overall experience of the venue:
