Angelo Waters

As a Practice Leader, Angelo J. Waters, PE, LEED AP, oversees the firm’s environmental practice.

Angelo takes pride in transforming blighted properties and aging infrastructure into green hubs that revitalize neighborhoods, spur economic development, and connect culturally diverse communities. One of his current projects is the redevelopment of Philadelphia’s Reading Viaduct (below) with the Center City District. Like the Promenade Planteé in Paris and the Chelsea High-Line in New York City, the Reading Viaduct is envisioned to become the next great public space for Philadelphia. Angelo has served as the environmental engineer and project manager for the project since its preliminary stages in 2004. The Center City District has chosen Urban to provide design services, thanks to Angelo’s ability to understand the vision for the project and deliver above expectations.
