Over the weekend, RJM Design Group and the City of Pasadena celebrated the completion of Phase 1 of its Arroyo Seco trail restoration project. The public-private partnership between the City and the One Arroyo Foundation improved 3.5 miles of trails by enhancing accessibility, addressing erosion, clearing trailheads, installing steps, and restoring natural landscapes. Trail users, including the Pasadena Pacers running club, have praised the upgrades for making the trails more accessible. Phase 2, set to begin next spring, will open pedestrian access to the historic Mayberry Parker Bridge. The foundation aims to maintain and enhance the entire 22-mile trail system, with potential future projects still under consideration. #rjmdesigngroup #communityinspiredspaces #buildingcommunity #pasadena #pasadenacalifornia #arroyoseco #onearroyofoundation #trails #hiking #hikingtrails #explore #explorecalifornia

⭐️New Advancements in our Master Plans!⭐️ RJM Design Group is now using Unacast’s Location Insights Platform to analyze park visitation patterns and optimize resource allocation. Using each park’s “saturation” metric, we can help your city balance maintenance efforts. By understanding factors driving park usage, such as sports facilities and playgrounds, we’ve developed tailored strategies for maintaining city parks. This data-driven approach helps ensure your community has more vibrant park spaces.

Today, Erik Curran celebrates his 13th year at RJM! Joining us in 2010, Erik’s keen eye for detail, exceptional project management skills, and friendly disposition have made him an invaluable asset to the RJM team. Congratulations, Erik, and thank you for all that you do!👏🏼 When asked what he enjoys most about working at RJM, Erik says, “What’s not to like? We have great clients, a great consultant team, and great projects. Because we’re a small firm, everyone has the opportunity to participate in all aspects of the profession from early conceptual design through construction. The variety of project types always keeps things fresh and interesting. But most importantly, the best part of working at RJM is the people. Not only do we have a great team full of talented people, but everyone genuinely cares about and supports each other professionally and personally. I feel very lucky to have worked here the past 13 years.” #rjmdesigngroup #communityinspiredspaces #buildingcommunity #teambuilding #teammemberspotlight #teammemberappreciation #workanniversary
