Commercial/Retail Land Development

Civil Site Design That Keeps Business Moving

Smart site planning is the foundation of successful development.

Successful development starts with smart, well-planned sites. Whether you're launching a retail center, restaurant, or office space, we design with your end goals in mind, including efficient parking layouts, ADA accessibility, reliable utilities, and streamlined permitting.

We collaborate closely with you to overcome site constraints, boost ROI through value engineering, and uncover funding opportunities that support your bottom line. Our team stays focused on keeping your project moving — on time, on budget, and built to perform.

Architecture Designed to Stand Out

Designing spaces that attract, perform, and adapt.

Your commercial space should do more than meet code – it should support your brand, enhance customer experience, and adapt to your operational needs. Our architects design retail, office, and mixed-use spaces that are functional, flexible, and visually compelling. We align closely with your business goals to create spaces that attract, perform, and grow with you.

From storefront facades and interior layouts to code compliance and future-ready infrastructure, we consider every detail. New developments, renovations, and expansions each come with unique demands, and we deliver commercial architecture designed to meet them. Our spaces are functional, flexible, and built to work as hard as you do.

Environmental + Wetland Services Driving Project Momentum

Know what you're building on – before you break ground.

Understanding your site’s ecological context early helps prevent delays and redesigns. Our integrated environmental team identifies risks such as contamination or regulated wetlands and works with agencies to secure necessary permits.

We offer Phase I ESAs, wetland delineations, mitigation planning, and avoidance strategies – all aligned with your goals. The result? Fewer surprises, faster timelines, and environmentally responsible developments.

Entitlement Services That Accelerate Approvals

Less red tape. More green lights.

Zoning, land use approvals, and local ordinances can quickly stall a great project. We act as an extension of your team to keep things moving – preparing clear documentation, managing submittals, and representing your interests during public hearings and municipal meetings.

Our team understands local regulations and knows what it takes to secure entitlements that align with your goals. We tailor our approach to fit your project’s timeline and vision, clearing the path for new developments or expansions and helping you gain approvals with fewer delays and greater confidence.

Traffic Impact Analysis That Makes Connections Work

Designing for flow – from vehicles to foot traffic.

Retail developments live and die by access and convenience. Our traffic engineers conduct traffic impact studies and parking studies that anticipate volume, improve ingress/egress, and promote safe pedestrian access – so your site feels connected, not congested. Whether you’re adding a drive-thru, expanding parking, or developing a multi-tenant shopping center, we help you understand the broader impacts on surrounding roadways and intersections.

Stormwater Solutions to Meet Regulations and Reduce Risk

Stay compliant. Protect your investment.

Commercial sites generate runoff, regulations demand solutions, and stormwater infrastructure requires ongoing maintenance and documentation. We design stormwater management systems – including detention basins, green infrastructure, filtration units, and commercial curb and gutter solutions – that meet regulatory requirements while supporting your operational goals.

Survey + Platting That Clarifies the Path Forward

Clear data, accurate boundaries, and a smooth path to development.

Before you build, you need to know what’s really there. Our licensed surveyors provide boundary surveys, ALTA/NSPS land title surveys, and platting services that support financing, design, and permitting – all with precision and speed. We help identify potential issues early, such as encroachments, easements, or zoning conflicts, so your team can move forward with confidence. No matter if you’re preparing land for sale, development, or long-term investment, our surveys lay the groundwork for informed decisions and successful outcomes.

Funding Support Built into Every Step

Integrated expertise to help you find and secure the right support.

Our dedicated funding team is integrated into every commercial and retail project, bringing a sharp eye for uncovering grants and low-interest financing opportunities. They specialize in finding creative ways to fund off-site improvements, public utility corridors, pedestrian access routes, and more.

Because funding eligibility varies by site and geography, our team tailors their approach to each project – helping you navigate options and secure support that aligns with your goals.
