Peter brings decades of experience to Austin Transit Partnership (ATP) working in public space design and community engagement. He believes Project Connect is an extraordinary opportunity to reinforce and enhance Austin’s diverse and human-centered urban fabric.
Peter comes to ATP from the Waterloo Greenway Conservancy, where he served as CEO since 2015. An innovative public park system built around a restored Waller Creek, including the transformed Waterloo Park and Moody Amphitheater opening in 2021, Waterloo Greenway will give the Austin community a new public gathering place, combining access to art and culture with an immersive natural experience in the heart of the city. Before moving to Austin, Peter played a critical role in the creation of the High Line in New York, a global model for next-generation public spaces.
A licensed architect by training, Peter is a graduate of Princeton University and the Yale School of Architecture, where he was the recipient of the Alpha Rho Chi medal for Leadership.
