Civil Engineering Projects

Western Michigan University’s new Sangren Hall building and site project replaced the original 1964 building and adjacent campus parking areas.

Fishbeck provided mechanical and electrical engineering services, and associated design and construction administration services for the Pomerene and Oxley Halls renovation.

To support the growing student population preparing for health profession careers, GVSU needed to offer the necessary laboratory research space to provide for student and faculty advancement.

The existing pedestrian bridge spanning the Grand River in downtown Grand Rapids needed rehabilitation to continue serving as a popular tourist destination during Art Prize and a scenic location for wedding ceremonies and photographs.

Fishbeck managed the due diligence process for site development of a 192,000 sf store with associated gas station.

The Fishbeck team provided full construction engineering for drainage system upgrades, superstructure and substructure repair, tree, road, and parking lot removals.

With increased visitor volume and robust children’s programming, Herrick District Library’s North Branch needed to add additional space to its existing 5,000-sf building. A complete renovation to the existing building, along with a 5,500-sf addition, will serve as a new community focused facility.

This new 5-story building provides much needed residential units to downtown Grand Rapids’ expanding west side neighborhood, with 35 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment units on the second through fifth floors, some with rooftop deck amenities.
