ASLA honors Lyle Center with 2017 Community Service Award
February 24, 2021
The Lyle Center for Regenerative Studies is the 2017 recipient of the prestigious Community Service Award from the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA).
The ASLA noted that the Lyle Center has been a force in facilitating community change, community education and community action since its construction on the California State Polytechnic University, Pomona campus in 1994. It was the life's work of Cal Poly Pomona emeritus professor of landscape architecture, John T. Lyle, FASLA (1934-1998).
Thousands of visitors tour the facility each year, learning about sustainable principles, and the center places students into communities to help organize and empower social and landscape change.
