AUSTIN REGION’S REPORT
NEW AUSTIN OFFICE!
In February we were able to move into our new, spacious workplace in the Park on Barton Creek’s
Building Two that will be our Austin home at least through May 2030. This allowed us to align with the
hybrid work schedule that the rest of the firm had been following since October 2021.
Our office building is located about 5 miles southwest of downtown Austin, at the intersection of two
major highways, but nestled within the Barton Creek Greenbelt. Our space is on the ground floor, with
floor-to-ceiling glass showcasing the wooded greenbelt just outside. Wild turkeys, bobcats, foxes, and
other woodland creatures stop by to peer in at us while we work, so it is a lot like being in a Disney
movie. While there are still some final touches and furniture additions to be made, we have found that
the space fosters creativity, supports collaboration, and builds community.
NEW FORT WORTH OFFICE!
With Steve Hafer joining the firm in July
and Charlie Kearns following in August
(see more about them below), we took
the opportunity to sublet a small office
in downtown Fort Worth, which is
nearer to their homes in North Texas.
While, in Steve’s opinion, it currently has
the air of an actuary’s office, this location
will allow us the opportunity to broaden our reach in Texas and better recruit staff and pursue project
opportunities in the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) Metroplex.
