A. Nelessen Associates
A. Nelessen Associates (ANA) is an award winning visioning, planning,
and design firm that believes in the development of high quality
communities of place. We accomplish this through a small team of
professionals, our trademarked community visioning process, innovative
land planning and urban design, and the integration of pedestrian and
transit systems with quality street and parking standards. ANA has
wide-reaching experience in North America and Europe and serves a
diverse body of clients ranging from private developers to municipal,
state, and federal agencies.
As a pioneer in the field of public participation, ANA
uses a proven community visioning process and the professional
translation of this vision into plans and codes for the public and
private sectors. Called Vision Planning, it is an innovative process
that allows citizens, government officials, builders, and all other
interested parties to participate in developing a common vision for a
single parcel of land, a downtown, a city, or an entire county. ANA
utilizes computer-based mapping and its trademarked Visual Preference SurveyTM, a unique tool that enables diverse groups to build a consensus vision for future growth and development.
The many Visual Preference SurveysTMconducted
by ANA has led the firm to become an advocate for more sustainable
transit oriented development and higher quality of life standards.
Development plans bearing the firm's signature combine the timeless
elements of traditional community life with essential elements of
modern living in order to create communities of place.
