CSDG

CSDG is a planning, civil engineering and landscape architecture firm based in Nashville, Tennessee, with additional offices in Chattanooga and Clarksville. The firm describes its three disciplines as working together as one team from the beginning of a project, whether it is engaged for a single service or across all three.

Its stated focus is on master plans developed with long-term thinking, resilient design that responds to changing environments and community needs, and landscape architecture that leads design conversations rather than following them. On its process page, CSDG sets out four working principles: integration across planning, civil engineering and landscape architecture; experience of more than 25 years and longstanding regional relationships used to guide projects through zoning, permitting and municipal approvals; design for resilience; and the proactive use of data on land use patterns, infrastructure capacity, zoning constraints and community needs.

The firm states that it remains involved after construction begins, helping manage changes and resolve issues. CSDG lists offices at 2305 Kline Avenue, Suite 300 in Nashville, 1216 East Main Street, Suite 220 in Chattanooga, and 130 Hillcrest Drive, Suite 110 in Clarksville. Its portfolio references projects including Southall Farm & Inn, 5 City Blvd., River North, St.
