In this article, Ian McHarg examined the significance of the Ecological Method to landscape architecture and how the method can be translated from a rural or agrarian setting to a metropolitan setting. With many new developments based only on the “criteria of economic determinism” as Landscape Architects we should strive to change the way society views urbanization, hopefully with ecological history in mind. McHarg believed one can better understand a site and properly determine its future program by traveling back to its origin and learning its “physical evolution” the knowledge of how the site came to be. With these invaluable data mapped out it provides Landscape Architects a clear view of how the landscape should be programmed.
