Planning Construction: World War II advanced the techniques of new town planning construction through the many defense projects and towns, most of them temporary in nature, throughout the nation. Even though temporary in type of construction, town planning construction principles necessary to good circulation, safety, social amenities, and even aesthetic satisfaction were employed. Much was learned from them.
The building design with its curved front and arched entry was well received by the city and conceals the industrial features of this manufacturing facility by helping it blend into the landscaped surroundings.
This is the sixth building project DeMattia has done for ZF, a leading worldwide automotive supplier of driveline and chassis technology.
DeMattia Group is an ISO 9001 certified, full-service real estate development, design and construction management firm.
DeMattia offers innovative solutions in site selection, land planning construction, design/build construction, architecture, engineering, construction management, Interior Design and property management.
The real task of the planning construction board therefore should be—and is, in those communities where planning construction is taken seriously—to serve as a research arm to the executive. "Pure" planning construction, planning construction according to theory, is a practical impossibility, for every executive decision is weighted by many factors of politics, expediency, finance, and local pressure. A conscientious executive and legislative body, nevertheless, can be assisted greatly in making decisions, if presented with the full implications, city-wide, of the alternatives.
