Best wishes to Don Horine (above, left), GBA VP and Principal in charge of our Civil/Site Development Group, who will retire on April 30 after 39 illustrious years with the firm!  Senior Associate Brad Burton (right) will assume Don's position as head of the group.

Over the years Don has had a hand in shaping the landscape of communities throughout the KC Metro Area and beyond with projects that include:

• Renner Ridge Corporate Center, a 75-acre business park and mixed-use development in Lenexa, Kansas;
• Executive Park, a 1,200-acre business and industrial park in the Northeast Industrial District of Kansas City, Missouri;
• Southlake Technology Park, a 310-acre planned business park in Lenexa, Kansas;
• Lenexa City Center’s East Village and North Village, new urban mixed-use developments that encompass a total of 77 acres in Lenexa, Kansas;
• The Falls, a 200-acre retail and recreational development in Independence, Missouri;
• The Wilderness, a 460-acre upscale residential community in Overland Park; and
• Sprint World Headquarters Campus, a 200-acre corporate campus in Overland Park, Kansas.

And many, many more!  Don is leaving the Civil/Site Development Group in good hands with Brad at the helm. A 25-year veteran of GBA’s Civil/Site Development Group, he will ensure continuity and continuing excellence as we move forward.

Congratulations to both Don and Brad as they launch into new and exciting endeavors!
