Ironworks at Pencoyd Landing is a historic industrial landscape located along the banks of the Schuylkill River, northwest of Philadelphia. Existing structures and materials from the historic landscape were analyzed and adapted into a complete transformation of the site. By incorporating bits and pieces from the original Pencoyd Ironworks building into the design, history is made visible in the steel outline of the former complex. The now modern waterfront complex features an elegant river walk where you can meander along and stop for coffee or a meal at the Landing Kitchen or admire the surviving ironwork structures.

I love to solve problems – Sudoku puzzles, crosswords, cryptograms, brain teasers. Then, there’s combining problem solving with math, drawings and construction that is our trade by nature. By never settling for ‘cookie cutter’ solutions, but instead developing tailored engineering designs specific to each project… well, that makes for a very rewarding career.”
