JDR Serving up Lemon Aid
Rarely has JDR worked with a client where there has been so much support, excitement and ground swell anticipation for a golf course renovation. But our recently completed work at Lemon Bay Golf Club may very well be among our most transformative architectural work.
Polo Club Poised for the Future
JDR recently capped off a major renovation at Boca Raton's Polo Club. Now with completely upgraded infrastructures the Club Course has been refashioned with a new, diverse design identity throughout, furthering Polo Club's position among the most established private clubs in South Florida.
JDR's "Must Know" Golf Courses
GCA recently asked Drew to create his "Top 10" golf courses. Not one for making lists of this sort, he took a slightly different route. Rather than than developing another "run-of-the-mill" top ten list, these ten courses have inspired his work or his thinking throughout his career... or were particularly fun experiences. Eclectic? Quirky? Absolutely, but this list is sure to be unlike any other!
JDR Continues Evolution of Plum Hollow
Following a comprehensive bunker renovation in 2021, Plum Hollow members are anxious to ride the momentum and execute additional treatments to one of Detroit's most historic courses under the direction of JDR.
JDR Primed to Guide Wisconsin's "Sleeper" - Pine Hills
So few probably know of Pine Hills, but hopefully soon more will. JDR selected to direct fine-tuning of one of Wisconsin's absolute golfing gems.
Site Prep Key to Knollwood Renovation
The on-going renovation of C.H. Alison's Knollwood Club in Chicago is a product of precise site planning, patience and perseverance.
