Belt Collins and its projects have received over 250 national and international awards since the firm's founding in 1953. These award-winning projects range from landscape design for small public playgrounds to master planning and site engineering for major destination resorts.

Praise for Belt Collins in a recent survey included comments such as "their knowledge of land use history is tremendous", and "they really get to know exactly what we do and what we like"; phrases such as "the amount of talent under one roof" and "their ability take what we want and translate it into reality" were matched by words like "patience", "professionalism", and "experience".

All of these words can be summarized in a phrase that cropped up time and time again, a short sentence that gets to the heart of what gives Belt Collins its unique strengths: "their people".
