We are thankful to have had the opportunity to partner with Fleis & VandenBrink, the Charter Township of Northville and all the sub-contractors and consultants who contributed to the success of this project. Working with this team of dedicated professionals and leaders with an ambitious and innovative plan to create and enhance public spaces to better the community was exciting. Thank you to APWA Michigan Chapter for the recognition and the work you do to bring together dedicated professionals in the public works industry committed to fostering professional growth and promoting excellence. We get the opportunity to work across various economic sectors and industries, collaborating with municipalities, facilities owners, general contractors, consultants, and sub-contractors to positively impact communities. This project is a perfect example of that. #makingwayforprogress #asbestosabatement #demolition #Michigan
We’re thrilled to share that we received the “Project of the Year Award” from the American Public Works Association – Downriver Branch in the Environmental Projects category ($5MM–$20MM). This recognition also puts us in the running for a state-level award next spring, with the potential to move on to a national nomination. A huge thank you to our design & construction management consultant Fleis & VandenBrink, and contractor Asbestos Abatement Inc. for their collaboration. Fingers crossed 🤞 for what’s ahead.

Congratulations to the Village of Pewamo on their 2024 Midwest American Public Works Association Michigan Chapter Project of the Year (Transportation $250,000 to $500,000 Category) for road improvements to three local roadways in need of critical repair. The project enhanced safety for pedestrians and vehicles, particularly near St. Joseph Catholic Church and School, where parking was reoriented and ADA accessibility improved. Additionally, undersized stormwater drains were replaced, and a new drain was added, preserving the roads, improving drainage, and preventing erosion. F&V provided design, grant assistance, and construction engineering services.

Meet Sam, our GIS expert who loves uncovering hidden gems from the past as part of his role! “I am constantly reviewing old records, imagery, etc. to help me develop a community's GIS. Sometimes, this leads me down a fun rabbit hole where I find interesting details or pictures about the communities we work with,” he said. While working on Lake County data, Sam stumbled upon the Village of Marlborough, founded in 1902 by the Great Northern Portland Cement Co. The village may be long gone, but its cement remnants still show up in aerial images today! Sam also digs into history with cemetery projects, like the Fairview Cemetery. During research, Sam found a 1900’s photo and couldn’t resist capturing a comparison shot of the site today. #GISDay

The improvements include a new playground structure, safety fall zones with rubber mulch, an all-season restroom, and a drinking fountain.
