At Campbell-McCabe, we are proud to be certified as a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE), and to participate in projects that prioritize diverse teams in all stages of design and construction. It has been exciting to watch the industry over the last year, as women- and minority-owned businesses (W/MBE) have greater opportunities to showcase their work on high-profile and innovative developments.

Campbell-McCabe is currently working on active projects in 17 states across the country, as we wrap up projects in the education, mixed-use, and hospitality sectors; celebrate the awards and recognitions of recent work; and participate in team building and professional development.

This year, the firm was recognized alongside architect Leers Weinzapfel Associates and contractor Bond Brothers, Inc. with a Boston Society for Architecture (BSA) 2021 Honor Award for Design Excellence for the Harvard University District Energy Facility in Allston, Mass. The 58,000sf, steel-framed facility is a lower-carbon, climate resistant system that provides heating, cooling, and electricity for the campus. Jurors complimented the project for its “compelling, jewel-like expression of the interior function on the exterior…expertly executed from concept to detail, with a clarity apparent through elimination of any unnecessary elements.”

We recently celebrated our work on Boston’s City Hall Plaza, along with design firm Sasaki, at the grand reopening ceremony on Nov. 18. The project includes a renovation of the historic plaza, the integration of accessibility components site-wide, and the addition of new event and gathering spaces, including sustainability elements to meet Boston’s resilience standards.

Finally, the women of Campbell-McCabe attended The American Institute of Architect’s (AIA) Women’s Leadership Summit, held this fall. It was an incredible team-building experience, and a chance to learn from the many accomplished leaders in the industry as they shared their challenges and successes as women in the AEC space. It was a great reminder to never stop pushing forward with energy, optimism and enthusiasm, and a source of inspiration for our team as we look forward to a prosperous and exciting year ahead!
