Each summer, we welcome a new class of interns who are interested in gaining experience in the architecture and design industries. If we’re fortunate, some of these interns return to FGMA to kick off their careers. We’re grateful for these interns-turned-employees who join us after feeling valued, supported and excited about their professional journey, knowing they are in an environment that nurtures their development and success. Don’t take it from us, though; learn firsthand why our interns want to stick around after graduating. We couldn’t be prouder of their journeys and we're grateful for the positive impact they bring to our team! Nesma Hamouda, Sydney Kocher, Brooks Neumann, Mackenzie Schulte, Randy McRoberts, Krystal Levitske, LEED Green Associate #fgma #NationalInternDay #Internships #CareerGrowth #ArchitectsAtWork #WeBuildCommunity

Shovels are in the ground and Community High School District 218 is officially kicking off the first of two phases of improvements which will include renovations and additions across multiple schools. The District’s investment in these spaces will ultimately enhance students’ opportunities by elevating their academic and extracurricular environments. A new fieldhouse addition at Eisenhower will support student athletes and provide additional space for physical education and athletics programs including an indoor 160M running track. Performing arts students will enjoy full renovated theater spaces at both Dwight D. Eisenhower High School and Alan B. Shepard High School. We are thankful for our design partner, JP Architects, Ltd. , along with the rest of the project team: Pepper Construction Group, UJAMAA Construction, RTM Engineering Consultants, TERRA Engineering, Ltd., Johnson Wilbur Adams Inc, Charcoalblue and Pique Technologies. We are grateful to see this project start to come to life! #fgma #CHSD218 #Groundbreaking #PK12 #WeBuildCommunity

“Public transit is more than just buses on the road. It's more than rails on tracks. It's the heartbeat of communities. It is lifelines." - Shoun Reese, Department of Transportation Deputy Director for Transit. The City of Champions recently celebrated the opening of the Emerson Park Transit Center, a strategic public safety and transportation facility in St. Clair County, Illinois brought to life by FGMA’s design team. The Center is unique in its intentional, multipurpose design. The Center houses multiple departments under one roof (public safety and public transit operations). Residents will gain confidence in using the transit system that connects them to the rest of the St. Louis metro east area. And the County will realize an increase in local economy and employment opportunities. A win-win for all! Learn more about the Transit Center: https://loom.ly/sGLd7Qo ✨ Sincere gratitude to all of the project team, including Poettker Construction Company, Gonzalez Companies, Kreher Engineering, @Larson Engineering, @rtmengineering, @Henderson Engineers ✨ Special thanks to our partners: @Illinois Department of Transportation, St. Clair County Transit District, St. Clair County Emergency Management - 911 CenCom-West, @Bi-State Development, Metro #fgma #PublicTransportation #PublicSafety #RebuildIllinois #MunicipalDesign #WeBuildCommunity

Military families at Scott Air Force Base Illinois will soon have more childcare options to choose from on base. Our team, in partnership with Zodiac-Poettker, is grateful to be awarded the design and construction of their newest Child Development Center. Families currently have access to two existing child development centers on base that serve children ages six weeks to five years.

Alloy Architectural Solutions did a thing yesterday! Teamed up with The Chicago Building Congress we had a group of amazing people volunteer at Feed My Starving Children in Schaumburg. Alongside FGM Architects and The Walsh Group - Walsh Construction & Archer Western at our station, we were able to pack enough meals in our 2 hour packing session to feed 119 kids for a full year 😍 Such a fulfilling experience! We can't wait to go back again!
