91 Awards announced for the BALI National Landscape Awards 2019

NEWS FEATURES FIRE & SECURITY SUBMISSIONS RESOURCES

Out of 145 entries submitted in 2019, 91 National Landscape Awards have been bestowed on 63 members of the British Association of Landscape Industries (BALI), with several members winning an Award in multiple categories.

Since the event was brought back in-house in 2018, numerous records have been achieved including the most entries received in the past 10 years as well as the highest number of entries from first-time entrants at 51, 35% of the total entries and an incredible record of 34 International entries.

Notable wins include five Awards for Registered Contractors Nurture Landscapes, four Awards for Garden Club London and three Awards for Rosemary Coldstream MBALI of Rosemary Coldstream Garden Design. Registered Contractor Sky Garden, who recently joined BALI also took home an Award for its scheme ‘One Bayshill Road’ in the ‘Soft Landscaping Construction (non-domestic) – Under £500K’ category whilst Bridgman & Bridgman, another new member, won an Award for its roof garden at IKEA Greenwich.

The BALI National Landscape Awards’ expert Adjudication Panel, led by John Melmoe was joined by BALI Chief Executive Wayne Grills, Operations Manager Kirsty Wood and Events Project Manager Leah Brookes for a three-day deliberation marathon in late August where each of the 145 entries were scrutinised.

Reflecting on this year’s tough deliberations, John said: “The meeting was extremely heated at times, with in-depth discussion on each and every scheme submitted. This is a very healthy process with a blend of good humour thrown in. The complexity of some projects entered is always interesting and shows the diverse nature of the industry in which we are involved. The majority of categories were well supported, but we noted a very strong presence from the domestic categories. The quality of both the presentation and precision of execution within this sector were extremely high. The commercial sectors have some serious competition coming through.

Each year the range of projects submitted continues to grow and we need to portray the industries’ capabilities to a wider audience within the construction industry and beyond. The Awards provides the platform for showcasing the industries skills and has increased in stature to become the leading event in the landscaping calendar. I cannot wait to gauge the anticipation of the members at this year’s ceremony.”

Leah, who is managing the event from BALI Landscape House, said: “This is my first BALI National Landscape Awards event and I have been so impressed with the high standards achieved by members. With a record number of entries since 2009, it proves that the Awards remain the largest landscaping Awards event in Europe, celebrating and rewarding schemes in the UK and internationally. I personally had the pleasure of joining some of the Adjudicators on their site visits this year, to get a firm understanding of the process. It’s true what they say, they really do leave no stone unturned when judging is underway.”

Wayne added: “Looking at the results this year, it’s clear our members are some of the world’s most talented, highly skilled landscape professionals, with projects that continue to set the benchmark in quality standards. Using cutting-edge technology and incorporating state-of-the-art materials helps to define these schemes and sets them on pedestals that are in a league of their own. Members have also demonstrated ways they have invested heavily in training and attaining industry- recognised accreditations, an exemplary achievement considering budget restraints and fluid economic market conditions. Congratulations to each and every one of you and I look forward to seeing you displaying your achievements on your own website and marketing materials.”

With the ceremony fast approaching, it has been confirmed that sport and lifestyle presenter Mark Durden-Smith is the host for 2019 and tickets are now on sale and expected to sell-out quickly upon the release of this year’s winners. The ceremony will be held on Friday 6 December at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House, Park Lane, London with Headline Sponsor and BALI Registered Affiliate Green-tech.

WILLIAMSTOWN — Waterford Hotel Group announced three appointments at the Williams Inn. Kevin Hurley has been appointed general manager, Kevin DeMarco was named executive chef, and Darcy Lyle is director of sales.

The new Williams Inn, located at the corner of Latham and Spring streets in Williamstown, will open on Aug. 15. Owned by Williams College, the inn will replace the current Williams Inn, which will continue to operate through July 31.

With more than 15 years of experience in the hospitality industry, Hurley has dedicated his career to the hospitality industry by taking on various roles at several hotels and resorts in the U.S. in addition to his native Canada. Prior to joining the Williams Inn, he worked as assistant general manager at the Kimpton Taconic Hotel in Manchester, Vt. He has also held posts at Omni Hotels and Resorts, the storied Charles Hotel in Cambridge, and Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. He completed his undergraduate studies at Bishops University in Sherbrook, Quebec and later went on to earn a master certificate in hospitality management from Cornell University.

A graduate of Johnson & Wales University in Providence, R.I., DeMarco has honed his culinary skills up and down the East Coast over the past 13 years. He joins the Williams Inn team from the Newport Restaurant Group in Newport, R.I. His last post was as chef tournant at Castle Hill Inn, a historic Relais & Châteaux property in Newport. He also worked at Grande’s Bella Cucina in Palm Beach, Fla. and Public Kitchen & Bar in Providence. He is a SWE-certified specialist of wine and spirits.

Lyle brings a wealth of knowledge to the Williams Inn with 28 years of experience in the hospitality and sales industry. Prior to joining the Williams Inn, she worked in sales at the Clark Art Institute, and has also held positions in operations and sales at numerous hotels throughout the upstate New York region, as well as the New York State Hospitality and Tourism Assoc. She attended Herkimer Community College, where she received a degree in tourist facilities and management promotion. While in school, she interned with Disney, where she found her passion for the hospitality and tourism industry.

Inspired by the architecture of local area farms, the new, 58,000-square-foot inn is built of stone and wood, with interior design that is reminiscent of a contemporary New England farmhouse. The inn will feature 64 guest rooms, a fitness center, a full-service restaurant and bar, and a combined 3,200-square-foot meeting and event space that includes a 2,800-square-foot ballroom and an additional 400-square-foot space directly adjacent to the ballroom. Event-space reservations are being accepted for dates starting Sept. 1. The property’s exterior features a 3,500-square-foot green space that can be tented for outdoor functions.

The inn will house a 62-seat restaurant, the Barn offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner as well as two private dining spaces. During prime weather months, outdoor seating will be available on the rear of the property.

20 San Diego Event Venues Your Attendees Will Love

If San Diego is the destination for your next event, first of all, lucky you. Second of all, let us help you with this list of 20 San Diego event venues, from the tried-and-true to the hip-and-new.

San Diego is a popular destination for events, and no wonder. The moderate climate makes it a delightful destination year-round; the city is super-walkable; and did we mention the beach?

Of course, you’ll need an excellent venue to match your excellent event location, so we’ve rounded up this list of contenders in various sizes, locations and tastes for any possible event on your agenda — giant conferences and exclusive VIP soirees alike.

San Diego Event Venues

The Prado at Balboa Park

Fleet Science Center

Horton Plaza Park

USS Midway Museum

BASSMNT

The Deck at Moonshine Flats

Miss B’s Coconut Club

Petco Park

Herb & Wood

Hilton Gaslamp

Mess Hall at Liberty Public Market

House of Blues

Kimpton Hotel Palomar

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

Moniker General

The New Children’s Museum

San Diego Wine & Culinary Center

Parq Event Center

San Diego Convention Center

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

1. The Prado at Balboa Park

Photo Source: The Prado Balboa Park

Location: Balboa Park

Capacity: 2,500

Architecture and history buffs will love an event at the The Prado at Balboa Park, which was originally built for the 1915-16 Panama-California Exposition to celebrate the opening of the Panama Canal. A careful three-year renovation maintained the integrity of the Spanish, Moorish, and Mexican architectural design that includes two dozen original, hand-painted, wooden stencil designs. The various indoor and outdoor event spaces—22,000 square feet in all—offer all sorts of options for different sized groups.

2. Fleet Science Center

Photo Source: Fleet Science Center

Location: Balboa Park

Capacity: 10–1,000+

An event at the 30,000-square-foot Fleet Science Center could include anything from a sit-down dinner among interactive science exhibits (including a six-and-a-half-foot “tornado”), a lovely view of the Bea Evenson Fountain designed by noted local modernist architect Homer Delawie, or an IMAX movie in the 274-seat Giant Dome Theater. Plus, this location is minutes from downtown!

3. Horton Plaza Park

Photo Source: Horton Plaza Park

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 1,900+

This urban plaza includes three distinct rental spaces over its 53,000 square feet: a modern hardscape, a green historic park and a coliseum-style bowl.

The venue has historical clout. The first iteration of this National Historic Landmark was sold to the city of San Diego by its namesake Alonzo Horton in 1885; the recently restored adjacent Broadway Fountain was established in 1910; and John F. Kennedy spoke at the plaza during the 1960 election.

The plaza’s newer features include an interactive pop-jet fountain and light sculptures.

4. USS Midway Museum

Photo Source: USS Midway

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 150–4,000

If you prefer unique venues to the traditional meeting rooms and ballrooms, consider the USS Midway—the United States’ longest-serving aircraft carrier during the 20th century, in use from 1945-1992. It now serves as a museum and unique event venue with 50,000-square-feet of usable space on the flight deck alone, which doubles as an exhibit of 50 years of naval aviation.

5. BASSMNT

Photo Source: BASSMNT

Location: Gaslamp Quarter

Capacity: 20–1,000+

Take your event underground at this glam, sophisticated nightclub in a historic property of exposed brick and wood. Event-goers will enjoy the state-of-the-art audiovisuals, hand-crafted cocktails and, hopefully, the dance floor. At just a 10-minute walk from the convention center, this is an especially good option for a conference evening shindig.

Protip: While the Gaslamp Quarter is the official name of the area where BASSMNT and many of our recommendations are located, you’ll sound like a local if you say “Gaslamp District” instead.

6. The Deck at Moonshine Flats

Photo Source: The Deck at Moonshine Flats

Location: East Village

Capacity: 150

For an event with a down-home vibe, consider the The Deck at Moonshine Flats, which features a stage, 16 LED screens and games like ping pong, corn hole and shuffleboard. Plus, you decide if your event is indoor or open-air thanks to a retractable roof. This event venue is three blocks from the San Diego Convention center and connects to its sister property Moonshine Flats, if you want to expand your event to include line dancing at a flashy honky-tonk.

7. Miss B’s Coconut Club

Photo Source: Miss B’s Coconut Club

Location: Mission Beach

Capacity: 138

If you want to give event-goers serious San Diego beach vibes, then Miss B’s Coconut Club situated on the Mission Beach boardwalk is a prime choice. The 2,329-square-foot space has fire pits and tiki-inspired decor and specializes in creative rum drinks to boot.

Fun fact: The fictitious “Miss B” hails from the early 20th century when a developer saw opportunity to further develop Mission Beach’s “tent city,” where residents literally lived in tents on the beach. “Miss B,” a riff on “Mission Beach,” was the face of that marketing campaign.

8. Petco Park

Photo Source: Petco Park

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 46,000

While Petco Park is best known as the home to the San Diego Padres, it doubles as an excellent event venue with a prime downtown location and a stunning view of the bay. You can rent pretty much any part of it—right field (capacity 1,640), rooftop (capacity 375) or the parking lots (capacity varies because, well, it’s a parking lot).

They even offer interactive games, such as Whac-A-Mole, giant bowling and, naturally, an inflatable batting cage. Plus, a dedicated event management team is on staff to help.

9. Herb & Wood

Photo Source: Herb & Wood

Location: North Little Italy

Capacity: 230+

This overhauled 9,500-square-foot warehouse is now a restaurant serving upscale Californian-Mediterranean cuisine. Guests can enjoy the industrial sophisticate space of the dining area and wraparound bar or opt for the open-air patio. Be on the lookout for original artwork by their artist-in-residence.

10. Hilton Gaslamp

Photo Source: Hilton Gaslamp

Location: Gaslamp Quarter

Capacity: 10–350

If the San Diego Convention Center is your hub for daytime events, the Hilton Gaslamp, located directly across from the convention center, is a prime spot for your evening ones. It has 13 event spaces within its 12,000-square-feet of event space, including an outdoor terrace in view of the convention center. Capacity varies according to space, with the Gaslamp Room and the outdoor terrace, at 3,500 and 5,000 square feet respectively, their most spacious offerings.

11. Mess Hall at Liberty Public Market

Photo Source: Mess Hall

Location: Point Loma

Capacity: 90+

The hip modern-day Mess Hall was once an actual mess hall in San Diego’s Naval Training Station built in the 1920s. Now this former training station is called Liberty Station and serves as a mixed-use development that includes Liberty Public Market, the foodie center of Liberty Station where Mess Hall resides.

First-rate cocktails are a focal point of Mess Hall, which prides itself in using local and small batch spirits and seasonal ingredients. Enjoy your cocktail in a clean, appealing space among quirky boat paintings by middle schoolers, which, due to their historic status, can’t be painted over.

12. House of Blues

Photo source: House of Blues

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 1,500

Just ten blocks from the palm trees of the San Diego Convention Center sits House of Blues, a self-described “old Southern Delta juke joint.” With its state-of-the-art lighting and sound, this venue can be a lively party or a not-so-staid corporate event.

The San Diego event space is part of the Live Nation special event family, so rest-assured, you’re in good hands here.

13. Kimpton Hotel Palomar

Photo Source: Kimpton Hotel Palomar

Location: Gaslamp Quarter

Capacity: 10–360

For a glam hotel event experience, take over this Kimpton Hotel’s 7,000 square-foot Level Four Pool Deck and Lounge and wow guests with views of the city. More traditional hotel event options are also available with an array of boardrooms, ballrooms and breakout rooms.

Expect a stellar sound system and art-filled rooms at this venue.

14. Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

Photo source: Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 21–3,000

You have your pick of event spaces at this waterfront location: bars, lounges, restaurants and one of the largest ballrooms in the city: the 30,000-square-foot Seaport Ballroom.

The Hyatt’s event space—totaling 316,000 square feet—is flexible too. Think ballrooms with column-free spaces, a multitude of breakout rooms, plus stunning views of the bay.

15. Moniker General

Photo Source: Moniker General

Location: Point Loma

Capacity: 40

For a more intimate event that exudes easy elegance, Moniker General—a bar, retail and coffee shop rolled into one—offers an enclosed patio with a custom-built wood and steel banquet table at its center. They supply the beverages, and you can tap any local restaurant you want to supply the food.

Bonus points for the complimentary parking around the corner at Liberty Station. For larger events, check out the flexible urban space of it its sister property, Moniker Warehouse.

16. The New Children’s Museum

Photo Source: The New Children's Museum

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 1,000

You can take over the entire New Children’s Museum, conveniently located near the San Diego Convention Center, or opt for designated spaces, such as their art studio, the garden or the Upper Level, which looks out on the San Diego skyline. The museum, designed by the well-known local architect Robert Quigley, is green and sustainable. Another reason to support this venue: It’s dedicated to stimulating creativity in children.

17. San Diego Wine & Culinary Center

Photo Source: San Diego Wine & Culinary Center

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 500

You have plenty of event space options here: wine cellars, a full-demonstration kitchen, and the 3,000-square-foot Sunset Patio—one of the largest patios around. Chef demonstrations and interactive tasting stations are specialities here which can offer a fun focal point to any corporate event.

18. Parq Event Center

Photo Source: Parq Event Center

Location: Gaslamp Quarter

Capacity: 50-1,800

The venue now known as Parq first opened its door in 1926 as a Bank of Italy and eventually became the clubbing hotspot On Broadway. Now, it’s a sophisticated 30,000-square-foot multi-room event venue with restaurant and nightclub spaces.

This historic building retains its original crown molding and vault doors to the bank, while the open-air restaurant has its own unique vibe inspired by New York’s Central Park. Just for funsies, you enter the nightclub through a grotto tunnel. Once there, you’ll find a stage and LED TVs aplenty.

19. San Diego Convention Center

Photo Source: San Diego Convention Center

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 130,000

This 2.6 million-square-foot behemoth of a facility includes a 90,000-square-foot column-free exhibit space and has an especially noteworthy space in the Sails Pavilion. The room’s structure has white sails (hence, its name), serving as a fabric roof that can be color customized thanks to LED lights

Plus, here you have panoramic views of downtown San Diego and San Diego Bay. And did we mention the facility is lined by palm trees? Not a bad way to “work.”

Protip: Managing an event in a space this large requires a locked-down event strategy. Our event management software can help with that.

20. Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

Photo Source: Hard Rock Hotel

Location: Downtown

Capacity: 1,000

If you like your event rooms, halls and outdoor terraces to have “buttoned-down business amenities with rock ‘n’ roll style,” as Hard Rock Hotel describes themselves, then look no further. The 8,700-square-foot Legends Ballroom is an especially versatile space that can be divided into six equal sections. Built-in colored lights, acoustic panels, and audio and visual capabilities galore add major pizzazz, while the location across from the conference center adds major convenience.

8 luxurious — and expensive — vacations in the United States

(CNN)You name it, it can almost certainly be arranged.

Breakfast with a giant octopus? A private dinner from Wolfgang Puck’s team, served in your 6,000 square-foot compound? A chopper to give you a head start on a hike — or a better view of a volcano?

When money is no object, the sky is truly the limit when it comes to unique experiences, accommodations and frankly ridiculous levels of luxury.

Here are some of the United States’ most extravagant and exclusive vacation options for those ready to make a serious investment in getting away.

1. Heli-hiking, Alaska

Jumping on a helicopter to start a hike may seem a bit like cheating, but there are few better ways to experience the majesty of Alaska’s wilderness.

Anchorage-based Ascending Path has been running mountaineering expeditions for more than 20 years and consulted on an episode of “Running Wild With Bear Grylls” that featured President Obama and climate change.

In partnership with Alpine Air Alaska, they’ll fly you up to one of a number of glaciers, outfit you with crampons, helmets and harnesses and then guide you in exploring blue ice, crevasses, caves and more.

A sushi lunch break is followed with another chopper hop to take part in glacier dog sledding for the ultimate in icy adventures.

Prices start from $1,250 per person for glacier hiking plus dogsledding. Hiking-only heli-tours are available for about half that price.

World’s most luxurious chain hotels

2. Aspen living, Colorado

Aspen needs no introduction as an exclusive vacation destination, and living the good life doesn’t come much easier than at Castle Rim.

Naturally, this 750 square-meter property boasts sweeping views toward the Aspen Highlands, but the facilities and interiors may keep you cozied up inside.

Along with six bedrooms, there’s a private terrace with a huge hot tub, fire pit and al fresco dining, while the gym, pool table and wine room will also help keep guests distracted.

As the host, you’ll want to make sure you nab the master bedroom with its fireplace and private deck.

Rates range between $18,000 and $25,000 per night.

3. Sleeping under the stars, Hawaii

A cool quarter of a billion dollars was spent transforming the former Marriott Ihilani into the Four Seasons Resort O’ahu at Ko Olina.

With that kind of outlay, it’s no surprise that vacationing in the Aloha State doesn’t get much sleeker.

Although Mercedes-Maybach and helicopter transfers are one option, the 75-foot Four Seasons yacht may be the best way to arrive before you disembark to check into the Presidential Suite.

The yacht boasts a private Sky Terrace where you can sleep out under the stars, but only after a 7-course dinner with Cristal and wine pairings at the chef’s table presided over by executive chef Martin Knaubert.

Yacht excursion transfer, one night in the Presidential Suite and chef’s table from $20,000

The world’s best luxury dive resorts

4. ‘Dueling Volcanoes’ tour, Washington

The natural world doesn’t get much more awe-inspiring than in the form of volcanoes, and this private overnight tour from Evergreen Escapes showcases two of the United States’ most famous, up close and personal.

A private seaplane takes you first to Mount Rainier National Park for trekking, caving and elk, black bear and coyote spotting with guides around the 14,410-foot peak with its stunning meadows, waterfalls, forests and valleys.

After overnighting in luxury near Seattle, you fly up to Mount St. Helens to visit the sleeping giant that shook the world with its 1980 eruption. The lava dome, crater and pumice plains should all be visible.

From $16,000 for two people for the private, personally guided experience

5. ‘Over the Top’ leaf-peeping, Vermont and Massachusetts

New England leaf peeping rises to an eye-opening new level with this four-night experience with Kimpton Hotels.
