Certain projects are memorable long after the last stake is pulled or permit signed. That is the case with the revitalization of the UrbanPromise Spirit Building and the $2 million renovation project in East Camden which resulted in providing a new cafeteria, gymnasium, computer center, and classrooms for the organization’s schools and after-school programs. Working hand in hand with UrbanPromise leadership and other partners, Stout & Caldwell was engaged to provide various civil engineering, surveying and planning services for the rehabilitation of the existing multi-story 17,980 square foot building. Specifically, the firm developed a minor site plan and performed boundary, topographic and utilities surveys, flood zone classification and other services, which were used to complete permitting and present planning board testimony. The now completed project helps youth of all ages and fosters the UrbanPromise mission. READ MORE
