At Atwell, we bring passion to every project, and in 2025, that commitment showed up in meaningful ways across the country. Throughout the year, we strengthened client relationships, prioritized safety, and delivered thoughtful solutions that support how people live, work, and connect with their communities. From complex infrastructure to carefully planned residential developments, our work continues to elevate the quality of life nationwide. Explore our 2025 project highlights below:
The Vineyard at Crescent Ridge, a luxury residential development in Central Washington’s Crescent Bar community, was one of our January project features. The Atwell team used a real-time, design-build approach across 40 single-family homes to ensure each lot had an unobstructed view of the Columbia River. Our team was able to deliver a year-round community that incorporates luxury, thoughtful design, and breathtaking views through strategic site planning, complex grading solutions, and close client collaboration.
In February, we highlighted Atwell’s work in leading quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) services for Etihad Park, New York City Football Club’s $780 million, privately financed soccer stadium. As the city’s first stadium built exclusively for soccer, the 25,000-seat venue will feature premium seating, a selection of dining and retail options, a 9,000-square-foot outdoor gathering space called the Supporters Porch, and a striking seven-story entrance called The Cube. The stadium is scheduled to open in 2027 and will be the first fully electric soccer stadium in Major League Soccer and in New York City.
In March, we shared how our team has helped Black Rock Coffee successfully expand across the West and Southwest by leveraging modular building designs. The Atwell team handled a full scope of services across these projects, from due diligence and permitting to engineering, construction coordination, and stakeholder outreach. This streamlined approach has allowed us to support more than 35 Black Rock Coffee projects across multiple states, playing a key role in the brand’s continued growth.
Our May feature was Serenbe, an award-winning, 1,700-acre biophilic community in Georgia, that redefines master-planned community development by prioritizing wellness, sustainability, and connecting people to nature. Involved since 2003, the Atwell team has helped create a community that conserves 70% of its land for natural and agricultural use while clustering custom-designed homes and amenities into walkable hamlets. Our team also helped pioneer new development and stormwater practices that influenced local zoning standards.
In June, we highlighted the Japanese Solderless Terminals (JST) campus in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Atwell served as a key engineering partner for the campus, incorporating cultural philosophy and environmental stewardship throughout the design. The 10-acre project was influenced by Japanese spiritual beliefs that view land and nature as sacred. Because of this, only four acres of land were actively used while the other six acres protect natural water flow and local ecosystems. Designed to work with the land rather than reshape it, the campus also features buildings elevated on stilts, geothermal energy systems, and materials sourced to minimize environmental impact, all while honoring both Japanese and Native American cultural heritage.
In July, we featured The Gulf Landing Logistics Center in Fort Myers, Florida, where an underutilized 285-acre site was transformed into one of Southwest Florida’s most significant industrial and commercial hubs. Both Atwell and RVi Planning + Landscape Architecture helped reimagine the property by expanding entitlements from 1.7 million to nearly 3 million square feet and revising the master plan to meet ambitious goals of the new owners. Even with tight timelines, the team was able to expedite permitting, resolve complex technical and regulatory challenges, and preserve 92 acres of natural land.
Scottsdale Quarter, a landmark mixed-use development in Scottsdale, Arizona, was our August feature. Atwell provided a range of services including platting, utilities, grading, drainage, and community coordination for the 28-acre development. The area seamlessly integrates residential, office, retail, dining, entertainment, and public gathering spaces into a vibrant, walkable destination where people can live, work, and relax.
In September, we emphasized Atwell’s partnership with a major Texas natural gas distribution company to improve safety and reliability of residential gas infrastructure. Atwell supports more than 2.1 million customers across 600 communities by providing services like planning, design, permitting, construction support, and phased execution to replace outdated and low-pressure gas lines while minimizing service disruptions. Our team is helping prepare Texas communities for continued growth while enhancing the long-term safety and resilience of critical energy infrastructure.
In October, we shared how Whitaker Farms, a thoughtfully planned residential development in Midway, Utah, demonstrates how high-end community growth can coexist with land preservation and local heritage. Originally part of a 100-acre family farm, the project dedicates 80 acres to development while preserving 20 acres of open space, including a central meadow and farmland that maintain the area’s character. Our team helped integrate public amenities, improve access to the adjacent Memorial Hill park, and contribute land and infrastructure that benefit the broader community.
These projects are just a snapshot of what our team has accomplished over the course of 2025, demonstrating the difference our work makes across communities. Together, they showcase the depth of our expertise, versatility of our services, and expertise Atwell brings to every client and project. As we look ahead to 2026, we remain committed to tackling complex challenges and helping communities thrive!
