responsible solutions are the cornerstone of our professional services, particularly around transit-oriented development. Whether it’s ground up new construction for affordable senior housing, the adaptive reuse of a former office building into apartments, or

the re-purposing of an existing historic building on a Brownfields site, Fuss & O’Neill understands the sequencing and planning necessary for successful projects. Our team works collaboratively to develop smart, integrated site/civil, survey, landscape architecture, master planning, and transportation engineering solutions. Environmental engineering and life-safety investigations of asbestos, lead, PCBs, radon, and indoor air quality (IAQ) are expertly identified and monitored throughout the project.

Housing Experience Understanding and meeting specific goals for a variety of housing types sets Fuss & O’Neill’s planners and engineers apart. We have successfully planned, designed, and engineered residential projects for: •

Brownfield Redevelopments

•

Public Housing Authorities
