New Horizons Newsletter July 2010
Greetings!
It is an exciting time at New Horizons! In the past three months we have hired two new team members - Katie Pinkerton and Ann Galbraith. Their breadth of experience and expertise are making it possible for us to continue to provide the highest quality service to our clients and enhance our business development efforts.

We have also had the opportunity to work on a number of exciting projects this summer out of our Kansas City and Lincoln offices.  The New Horizons Kansas City office has worked on projects for Lathrop and Gage; Midwest Grain Products; City of Kansas City, Missouri; City of Ft. Scott, Kansas; CWB; AB May; City of Atchinson, Kansas; McDonald's; the Housing Authority of Kansas City; and the Kansas City, Kansas Chamber of Commerce.

Our Lincoln office, with the help of our Kansas City Office, has worked on the campus of the University of Nebraska at Ferguson Hall, two Omaha Public Schools renovations, and recently started a 3-month long project at the Lincoln Water Services office building.

As always, we appreciate your feedback!

Sincerely,

Feature Project: Custom Color Building
Kansas City, Missouri  
This office building located at 19th Terrace and Central had won numerous awards in the 1970's for it's exterior work covering the brick and window exterior that created a modern look.  In 2010, the modern look was removed to expose the brick and open all the windows back up.  This was completed in steps as all exterior paneling needed to be removed along with the wood frame that supported the paneling.
