310-324 Rindge Avenue - CAMBRIDGE, MA

As the lead engineer for this high-profile residential project in the Fresh Pond Neighborhood of Cambridge, Design Consultants, Inc. (DCI) worked with Architect Jai Singh Khalsa on the 99-unit project.

The full scope of the project included survey, site design, site engineering, traffic engineering and permitting. DCI undertook the most rigorous element of the project, which was to address the numerous traffic concerns expressed by the City of Cambridge and the general public. DCI thoroughly evaluated how each roadway approach potentially affected nearby intersections and studied potential impacts upon the pedestrian environment within walking distance from the proposed development. Other complexities of the project included storm drainage, parking, as well as pedestrian and bicycle access.

DCI, working with the client, architect and the community, finalized permitting of this challenging project in early 2003. The project illustrates the strength of DCI to perform within a stringently regulated environment while working effectively with public agencies and neighborhood groups.
