BEND, Ore. (August 2, 2022) – Kirby Nagelhout Construction Company and Hennebery Eddy Architects were selected by the City of Bend to design and construct its new Juniper Ridge Public Works Campus that will bring together the City’s engineering and infrastructure planning, fleet, transportation and mobility, and utilities functions, currently in three separate locations. The 26.5-acre site will include administrative and employee support spaces, fleet maintenance, shop and warehouse facilities, vehicle wash and storage spaces, and other specialized areas, and will improve efficiencies among municipal functions.

The City selected the team for a progressive design-build project delivery partnership, which allows all parties to collaborate from the beginning of the effort. The streamlined design decision-making and communication between owner, designer, and contractor results in faster project completion and leverages everyone’s expertise from early design through occupancy.  Kirby Nagelhout and Hennebery Eddy, both with offices in Bend, have experience together in design-build project delivery, and are well-versed in sustainable, energy efficient, and net-positive design in Central Oregon’s unique, high-desert climate. They have partnered on other projects in Oregon.

“We are inspired by the City of Bend’s commitment to creating an equitable, inclusive workplace and doing so in an environmentally responsible manner that respects the physical site and surroundings of the campus,” said Hennebery Eddy associate principal Camilla Cok, AIA, who is leading the design work. “Central Oregon is a special place and connecting people to nature through the workplace is a unique opportunity.”

“The City of Bend has set a high bar for their Juniper Ridge Campus.  As a leading design-build contractor, Kirby Nagelhout Construction is extremely proud to be part of the City’s vision to deliver the best value program for its employees, the local construction community, and the community,” said Mike Custer, KNCC senior project manager and lead project manager for the Juniper Ridge project.

Kirby Nagelhout and Hennebery Eddy are collocated for the Juniper Public Works Campus project. Design work began in early 2022; the City of Bend anticipates construction completion in late 2025.

We’re overjoyed to announce our role as CM/GC for two Deschutes County Public Library projects: the new Central Library as well as the Redmond Library.

In the Cascade Business News article, our President, Jeff Deswert, states: “Public projects like these Libraries have a more significant impact on the communities they serve than other projects that come along. This gives us the opportunity to continue to invest our efforts in the community that has provided for us. We support Central Oregon in many ways and now we have the opportunity to support our families that live, learn and play here in Central Oregon.”

We would like to extend our gratitude to Deschutes County Libraries for granting us this opportunity to partner with them on these projects. We are immensely proud of our team for their hard work in this process and are excited to start construction next year!
