Landscape designer Raymond Jungles was awarded the prestigious ASLA Honor for his design of the Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve in Eleuthera, Bahamas. The site is home to a designated research center for traditional bush medicine, a facility for the propagation of indigenous plants, and an educational center focusing on the importance of native vegetation to the biodiversity of the Bahamas. The design laid the foundation for the visitor experience, utilizing existing saltwater marsh with a mature stand of red mangroves, secondary dune, and the native coppice, as highlighted ecosystems.
