Lansing-based C2AE architectural and engineering firm held its revenue steady in 2008 and expects to do the same in 2009, bringing in $10 to $15 million. It hired six new employees recently, including a new director of environmental services, Glenn Burkhardt.
“We are expecting many opportunities in the environmental field,” says Marcie McCann, C2AE spokeswoman.
The company served as lead architect last year on the design and construction of the Hastings Library, which won gold LEED certification from the U. S. Green Building Council.
C2AE is working on a drinking water contract for Lansing Township; Burkhardt’s resume is heavy on water and wastewater treatment experience.
Other C2AE projects in progress in the Capital region include design studies for improvements to the 200 and 300 blocks of South Washington Square in Lansing and the Edgewood Avenue streetscape on Lansing's Southside.
The Prudden Place-sited company most recently worked on the extension of Lansing’s River Trail from Hawk Island Park to Jolley Road.
The company has three offices: Lansing’s employs 73 people full time; the Grand Rapids and Gaylord offices employ 37. Seasonal and contract labor would add more people to the roster to implement statewide projects.
