Patrick Beam, Landscape Architect/Owner
brings a lifetime of experience to every design
produced by 9th Avenue Designs, LLC.
As early as 1981 Pat was transplanting and
rearranging the trees, shrubs and perennials
in his parents yard. Five years later he had
designed and installed his first professional
landscape job.
Never being complacent and always wanting
to improve his designs Pat graduated in 1995
with a bachelor’s degree in Landscape
Architecture from The Ohio State
University (ranked #1 in the country 2005,
Design Intelligence). Aside from being a
