Built From the Inside Out

Your Infrastructure Vision, Delivered.

Transit Strategy

We do not theorize about transit. We partner with KCATA, negotiate ground leases, and put shovels in the ground.

Transit Feasibility Studies

We determine whether your transit investment will work — ridership demand, cost recovery, route viability — before you commit a dollar.

Streetcar & Light Rail

From the KC Streetcar corridor to emerging light rail concepts, we bring planning grounded in the politics, funding, and community dynamics that determine success.

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)

BRT done right transforms corridors. We plan dedicated lanes and enhanced service that cities can actually fund, build, and sustain.

Route Optimization

Better routes mean more riders and lower costs. We use ridership data and community input to redesign networks that serve the people who need them most.

Service Expansion

Growing communities need growing transit. We plan the extended hours, new routes, and frequency increases that keep neighborhoods connected.

Transit Oriented Development

We do not just plan around transit stops — we develop at them. Promise Place and The Mabion are proof that TOD can be affordable, beautiful, and real.

Infrastructure Advisory

Federal dollars are available — but only for those who know how to ask. We have secured funding, structured partnerships, and closed deals at every level of government.

Bipartisan Infrastructure Law

BIL created the largest infrastructure investment in a generation. We help you identify the right programs, build competitive applications, and position your project to win.

ARPA Fund Navigation

ARPA funds are time sensitive and compliance heavy. We guide eligible uses, reporting requirements, and strategic deployment so nothing is left on the table.

Federal Grant Applications

RAISE, INFRA, SS4A — we prepare applications that score. Our track record reflects deep fluency in what federal reviewers look for.

Public Private Partnerships

The best P3s align public mission with private execution. We structure arrangements where both sides win — because we have sat on both sides.

Capital Improvement Planning

A strong CIP is the backbone of any growing city. We build long term capital plans that reflect real priorities, real funding, and real timelines.

Infrastructure Financing

Bonds, TIF, special districts, New Markets Tax Credits — we know the full toolkit because we have used it to close our own deals.

Policy & Advocacy

Dr. Nash chaired the committee that approved Kansas City's largest developments. That experience — the negotiations, the votes, the political realities — is embedded in every engagement.

Transportation Policy Advisory

Policy is not abstract to us. We have drafted it, debated it, and voted on it. We advise at every level of government with the credibility of someone who has governed.

Legislative Advocacy

We prepare testimony, build coalitions, and navigate the legislative process — not as lobbyists, but as former legislators who understand the pressure points.

Intergovernmental Coordination

City, county, state, federal — infrastructure projects cross jurisdictions. We broker collaboration because we have relationships at every table.

Regulatory Navigation

NEPA reviews, environmental clearances, permitting timelines — we guide projects through the regulatory maze with the patience and precision it demands.

Transit Corridor Zoning

Zoning shapes what gets built around transit. We craft corridor strategies that enable density while honoring the character residents care about.

Elected Official Briefings

We prepare decision ready briefings that respect elected officials' time and give them the clarity they need to say yes.

What Happens When We Practice What We Preach

TOD Project

Promise Place

Kansas City, Missouri - KCATA Partnership

85 affordable homes built on a KCATA ground lease — a first of its kind partnership that proved transit oriented development and affordability can coexist.

85 Units KCATA Support 4% LIHTC
Under Construction

The Mabion

Kansas City, Missouri - Beacon Hill TOD

57 units rising at Beacon Hill, named for community leader Ray Mabion. Broke ground October 2024. Completing June 2026. A $25M testament to what TOD looks like when practitioners lead.

57 Units $25M TDC 9% LIHTC

Not Consultants. Practitioners.

City Council Chair

As Chairman of Planning, Zoning & Economic Development, Dr. Nash did not just advise on $10 billion in development — he approved it.

KCATA Partnership

Not a vendor relationship — a development partnership. Promise Place and The Mabion exist because KCATA trusts us to deliver.

MHDC Board

Eight years as Vice Chairman of Missouri Housing Development Commission. We understand state housing policy because we helped shape it.

We Build What We Advise

254+ units in active development. Over $100M in total development cost. Our advice comes from our own closing table.

Scholarship Meets Practice

Eight degrees including a Master of Urban Planning from USC. Director at UMKC Bloch School. The research informs the work — and the work validates the research.

Federal Fluency

From BIL to ARPA to LIHTC, we navigate the federal funding landscape because we have used it to finance our own projects.
