Wagner Hodgson

What Wagner Hodgson does

Wagner Hodgson is a privately held landscape architecture firm founded in 1987 by H. Keith Wagner in Burlington, Vermont. The firm provides professional landscape architecture services — including master planning, site design, urban and civic design, and construction documentation — across higher education, municipal and civic, hospitality and resort, corporate and commercial, mixed-use development, and high-end residential sectors. It operates from two studios (Burlington, VT as headquarters, and Hudson, NY, opened in 2017) with a team of roughly 18–22 staff and five partners, including three ASLA Fellows.

The firm's core deliverables are design services rendered under project-based professional service agreements rather than licensed or recurring-fee products; engagement is principal-led from initial concept through construction administration. It is registered in 13 states and CLARB-certified, enabling it to pursue institutional and public-sector RFPs across the Northeast and beyond. There is no disclosed technology platform or proprietary software product; the firm produces standard landscape architecture deliverables using established CAD, GIS, and visualization tooling.

Revenue is generated through professional service fees tied to billable hours and project milestones, with engagement scale ranging from residential commissions to multi-year campus and resort master plans for clients such as the University of Vermont, Harvard, Williams, Middlebury, Johns Hopkins, Salem State, Hotel Champlain, Topnotch Resort, Jay Peak, BETA Technologies, Burton Snowboards, Dealer.com, and GE Healthcare. The firm has accumulated 63 documented design awards, including recognition from ASLA at the national level, which functions as a qualification credential on competitive bids.
