Shawn Weidner
PLA | Associate Principal
When he’s not at the office, Shawn can be found with his wife and son exploring the Chicago Botanic Garden or taking in a food or music festival. But this Ohio native’s talents go beyond horticulture facts and visions of landscapes; he took home second prize in his third grade spelling bee, and has spelled ‘a-r-c-h-i-t-e-c-t’ correctly ever since.
- Almost two decades of experience in landscape construction, site development, and horticulture
- Directs construction observation and oversees quality control
- Large portfolio of hands-on experience in plant varieties, construction details, project scheduling and estimating
Shawn coordinates with project managers early on in the design process, giving input on pricing, materials, and planting selections. His experience in construction administration includes many of the firm’s high-profile commercial projects, including the Old Chicago Post Office, POST Houston Rooftop and Amenity Decks and North Park University.
