For more than 15 years, Straughan has applied our vision to projects ranging in scope and discipline from a 6 acre green development for workforce housing to the multibillion dollar Woodrow Wilson Bridge project. Our sustainable systems approach incorporates the natural ecology of a site (topology, geology, hydrology, soils, climate, habitat, and wildlife) with the human and cultural facets of the community to develop a site true to its sense of place. Low impact design lowers site infrastructure costs and protects the environ-ment. Our scientists and engineers create stormwater management plans that mitigate impacts to land, water and air by conserving the natural systems, devel-oping functional landscapes, and preserving the hydrologic functions of a site.
