Riverfront Estate

This historic 40-acre estate near downtown Louisville is sited on a magnificent bluff overlooking the Ohio River. JP Shadley's work at the property has included the complete redevelopment of several acres of formal gardens which include a new entry garden, dining and swimming terraces, a garden pavilion, two lush perennial gardens, and several fountains.

Shadley Associates has also designed several site specific art pieces for the property, and collaborated with Louisville artists who have executed the works. One such piece is the “the Vine Rail Fence,” which Louisville sculptor Craig Kaviar brought to life. This piece won a Design Honor Award for Art in the Landscape from the Boston Society of Landscape Architects and a Design Award from the Kentucky Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects.
