Community Development
Our communities, now more than ever, have become the place where we both work and play, yet many neighborhoods are not built to meet today’s needs of its citizens. Throughout Michigan and much of the Midwest, the condition of our infrastructure and outdated design of our streets and walkways are not always conducive to support how we want to live. NTH knows our public spaces need to be revitalized to enhance community development efforts.
As an experienced assessment, design, remediation, and development consultant, NTH partners with our clients to reimagine today’s communities to better fit how we want to experience them. We can breathe new life into existing neighborhoods, renew urban areas, and create sustainable, practical, thriving places for families and businesses alike.
Building strong communities does not happen overnight, but NTH can help our clients and their residents get started by creating vibrant neighborhoods, invigorating existing public areas, and infusing energy into their communities and downtowns. NTH’s drive to learn about and develop the latest technologies and techniques keeps us on the cutting edge and assists our clients in utilizing innovations that translate to savings for the public.
