Civil Engineering & Land Design

Land Design combines the art and vision of planning with the engineering knowledge necessary to create the built environment.

Gilmore & Associates earned its reputation as a leader in site engineering through a full-service approach that begins with initial site evaluation and feasibility planning and carries through to regulatory approvals. Additionally, our sustainable site design practices enhance our clients’ ability to achieve their goals on projects that seek LEED™ certification.

Professional engineering capabilities include everything from general land design requirements for municipal approval to specialized applications of floodplain analysis and Riparian Corridor Enhancement. With stormwater at the forefront of development concerns in southeastern Pennsylvania, our practice of soil investigation combined with creative approaches to subsurface storage and infiltration, permeable paving systems and naturalized basins incorporates stormwater measures into prominent site features, rather than place a burden on the landscape.

Sharing information, ideas and expertise is an integral element of the collaborative culture we foster internally at Gilmore & Associates and with clients. Backed by nearly four decades of experience, our professionals work to become a trusted source of knowledge, not just a project consultant.

Following a natural progression from our firm’s survey roots through simple residential subdivisions, our site engineering accomplishments have grown to involve development teams for healthcare facilities, higher education and local school districts, commercial real estate development, and municipal improvement projects. The success of our services is evident in communities across the Delaware and Lehigh Valleys.
