Civic Architecture
Civic facilities are community anchors that draw people together through common purpose. There is a strong connection between communities and the buildings they inhabit, and that connection is a fundamental consideration in the design of civic facilities. Police / fire stations, libraries, parks, and public work buildings can evoke a strong sense of identity and pride in the community.
RDLR civic projects influence the public realm in a lasting and impactful manner while maintaining authenticity and character of the place.

“Dealing with issues such as changes in scope and contractor, natural disasters like Hurricane
Harvey and even throughout the COVID pandemic They have constantly been there,
solution oriented, to thrust us towards our finish line. RDLR could not have been a better
team to work with and I do not hesitate to recommend them for any project I or we as the
City of Houston have moving forward.”
