Municipal

 

The municipal practice at B&A adheres to design principals which allow us to design public buildings that convey both dignity and functionality while maintaining strict compliance with regulatory requirements. A municipal practice is unique in that these buildings provide access to local and state governments and become the mainstay of communities, invoking civic pride and allowing for utmost functionality and serviceability to those they serve. B&A has long been part of the municipal framework of communities across the United States and continues to advance new technologies in the process of designing these unique facilities.

B&A's municipal practice often includes master planning services to revitalize or restructure municipalities. For over half a century the firm has designed and planned communities both in the United States and abroad providing in-house architectural, engineering, master planning services and landscape design services.
