The Olmstead Brothers was a landscape architectural firm operated by the sons of Frederick Law Olmstead, the father of American landscape architectural practice. After his success with NYC’s Central Park, he worked across the US on numerous projects, public and private. His sons worked with him and eventually took over that practice.
