It’s Meisje Monday!

Meisje’s regularly scheduled office supervisory duties were postponed today as her eyelids just became a bit too heavy to keep open!  While the toy might be a tough one to shred, it obviously isn’t a tough one to nap with.

We are thrilled to announce that the Navigation Center, a 100-bed homeless shelter championed by Oregon Harbor of Hope and backed by numerous private and public entities, opened today.  The facility offers an on-site medical clinic staffed by Central City Concern, showers and laundry machines, and one-on-one case management focused on employment, housing, and treatment services.

HDG Principal Dave Humber generously offered up his boat for an evening to take the team out on the Willamette River to enjoy some fun and sunshine.  It likely goes without saying, but we really enjoyed the special treat!  Thanks, Dave!!

Our well-traveled HDG logo appeared on the Gamble Sands Golf Course in Washington this past weekend with team member Andrew Xu, who played what we heard was a pretty good round of golf.  Who knows where the logo will go next.  We’ll keep you updated!

Phase I of Douglas Loop is complete!

Posted by

Clackamas Community College’s main road, Douglas Loop, was cracked, worn, and well beyond its design life.  HDG provided civil engineering design services for the 2/3 mile replacement of the road, which included installation of new curbs, inlets, ADA accessibility, crosswalks, and full-depth reclamation (“FDR”) which allows for quicker replacement, less haul off, less import, and effective recycling of materials.  The new asphalt over FDR section approach is designed for a 40-year period.  The project is being completed in phases to allow continual access to the site.
