Kaestle Boos formed a bond with our Public Building Committee and got us through the hidden issues found inside old walls, drainage issues affecting neighborhood properties and local approvals that required many meetings with planning and zoning to meet their requirements. They were an architectural firm that we trusted constantly to get the job done on time and under budget.
