Allegheny Lutheran Social Ministries, Centre County
Lutheran Commons is a Department of Housing and Urban Development approved senior housing apartment complex. The project involved design and construction of a 12,500 SF apartment building containing 14-units, associated parking lot, street/driveway access, walkways, utility extensions, and stormwater management facilities. Three (3) rain gardens were designed to manage the site’s stormwater.
The project also included the site design to construct a 954 SF garage to be used for storage of maintenance vehicles and equipment. Additional development included associated access driveways, sidewalks, and infiltration sumps to address the small increase in impervious area.
For over 20 years I have had the privilege of working with Keller Engineers and their staff of surveyors, and civil and structural engineers on over $150 million worth of work. During these project relationships and partnering opportunities, my architectural teams have received nothing but premium professional services and courtesy towards my own staff, clients and prospective clients with stellar attention given to building and site details, client responsiveness and peer respect. I look forward to many more teaming opportunities and urge any other architectural firms, municipalities or clients who have not worked with Keller Engineers to do so. You will be pleasantly surprised! Richard L. Karcher, AIA, NCARB
