A view we're especially proud of!

There's something special about seeing Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 in front of a sprawling building our team had the privilege of designing!

Many years ago, hc architects designed the Roundhouse and Museum Complex at Steamtown National Historic Site, a facility created to celebrate and preserve America's railroad heritage; a national treasure, right here in Scranton.

During Big Boy's visit, more than 50,000 visitors came to experience this incredible locomotive at the historic setting. We're proud that this project continues to serve as a destination where great architecture, engineering, and history come together and is celebrated by so many.

Progress at Misericordia University's LEAP Center is nearing the finish line! We're excited to see the vision come to life as construction moves toward completion. Swipe to compare the original renderings with the latest construction progress.

U of S Weiss Hall Strikes Gold!

hc architects is proud to celebrate the Robert S. and Marilyn A. Weiss Hall at the University of Scranton officially achieving LEED Gold Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. This state of the art facility reflects a shared commitment to sustainable design through energy efficiency, reduced water use, innovative mass timber construction, and environmentally conscious building practices.

A huge thank you to the entire project team and the University of Scranton for their collaboration in bringing this impactful project to life!

Last week, Laura Gillette-Mills, AIA, Principal, and Angela Kiesinger, NCIDQ, Lead Interior Designer, attended Empower: The Leadership Experience at Kalahari Resorts, hosted by the Scranton Chamber of Commerce.

Laura moderated a panel focused on getting involved and leading through community engagement—an inspiring conversation that reflects our commitment to making a difference in the communities we serve.

It was an enjoyable and rewarding day, as women from across the region connected, networked, and empowered one another,

Wishing you a bright and joyful Easter from all of us at hc architects🐰🌷

HC ARCHITECTS DISCUSS DENNIS FARMS RESTORATION PROJECT WITH GOVERNOR SHAPIRO

hc architects’ Principal Ken Ruby reviewed restoration plans for the Henry W. & Angeline Perkins Dennis House Rehabilitation with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro during the Governor’s recent visit to the Dennis Farms National Historic Site in Susquehanna County.

The farm, first settled in 1793 by Prince Perkins, a free African American, is the oldest continuously owned African American farm in the country.

The historic farmhouse, portions of which date over 200 years old will be restored into an interpretive public museum that will inform visitors of the Perkins Dennis family farm history intertwined with over two centuries of national historical events.

Visit the Dennis Farms Charitable Land Trust website at thedennisfarm.org to learn more about this remarkable historic site and family.
