Holmes and Patrick A. Mancuso, has served numerous municipalities throughout the state of Connecticut on various project types and sizes. Weve worked with departments of public safety, planning and development, public works and parks and recreation, among others, to enhance the communities they serve and create better experiences for their residents. With over 25 years of service to many of the municipalities in Connecticut, weve met the challenges set forth by our clients by producing thoughtful and responsible Architecture with a hands on approach. One, or both partners actively participate in all phases of projects and execute many of the duties required to complete the project, such as project organization, design consideration, document production and coordination and administration. It is this system that allows us to be competitive with our fees as well as deliver the work in a timely manner and within budget. Some of the municipal projects we are working on, or have completed give us the required experience we need to make the Town of Ledyards new Police Department a great success. Currently we are working with the Town of North Haven to make improvements to their Police Department Facility. In the past weve worked with the Town of East Hartford Police Department in the design and construction documents of their 80,000 sf Public Safety Complex.
