🌟 Crossing the finish line isn't just about the #race—it's about the journey, the #grit, and the determination it takes to get there. 🏃🏽♀️⬇️ I'm thrilled to share that I recently conquered the #Charleston Copper River Bridge Run for the second time, achieving a personal record in my 10k training! 🥇✨ This victory isn't just about #running; it's a testament to the power of perseverance, discipline, and pushing past limitations. Just as in running, in our professional and personal lives, we encounter challenges, setbacks, and moments of doubt. ➡️But it's how we respond to these obstacles that defines our success. ⬅️ With each stride towards the finish line, I was reminded of the importance of setting goals, staying focused, and putting in the hard work even when it's tough. This experience mirrors the dedication and commitment I bring to my work every day at Lambert Architecture + Interiors. In addition to my Chair responsibilities with Greater Winston-Salem, Inc. ‘Winston Under 40’. Just like in running, in our #careers, we must continuously strive to surpass our personal bests, challenge ourselves, and never settle for mediocrity. Whether it's hitting targets, leading projects, or fostering meaningful connections, we have the power to exceed expectations and reach new heights. So here's to embracing the journey, celebrating the victories—both big and small—and never underestimating the incredible things we can achieve when we set our minds to it. Let's keep pushing forward, inspiring others, and making every step count. 💪💼 #PersonalBest #CareerGoals #LifeBeyondLimits #crazybreakthroughrunning 💥 Tim Hooker

Back in action with part 3 of our #flighttoquality series. On the border of Hazel Park and Warren, we have a case study for the industrial sector. Once upon a time, this was the former Hazel Park Raceway and Stacey's Golf Center. Hazel Park Raceway was a fun venue, and Stacy's Golf Center in Warren is where I took my first golf swings.... Matthew & Carter could explain a few things. Over time, the land simply became too valuable, and both have been redeveloped into Class A Industrial parks by Ashley Capital & Hillwood. Today, companies like Amazon & BorgWarner lease large blocks of space, all inked up to long-term leases. The reason these tenants weren't here before... in effect, they couldn't be. Hazel Park and Warren are both older, inner ring suburbs. Most of the product was too old for modern users: tight columns, small truck courts, small footprints, low ceiling heights, etc. There really wasn't a building with the qualities modern tenants were looking for until these buildings came out of the ground. Lo and behold, once the quality was here, the tenants were happy to move forward. Is this a flight to quality? To a degree, I would say yes. Without the Class A buildings, these tenants simply wouldn't be here. Maybe the tenants didn't trade up the way office tenants do, but the concept remains the same to me. #brokerpals & #crefam: Conrad Mark ‘Natalie Kim Danny David Matt Jeffrey Adam Kevin Eric Nick Tim Gabe JP Janet Randy Josh Maggie Michael Andrew Bill John John Daniel Kent Taylor Marc Joel Justin John Eric Wayne Steve that's my two cents... don't bet it all on one horse! #savills #detroit #ccim #sior

Road studs play a crucial role in improving road safety. They increase visibility on roads specially at night. The bright reflective material used in road studs reflects the headlights of a car, making it easier for drivers to see the road ahead. #reflector #bright #colours #visibility #road #night #rain #fog #safety #safetymatters #safetymanagement #safetymanagementsystems #driversafety #inspire #brand #herculean #stud #vehiclesafety

Today, as I paused in this open doorway, I was struck by the profound symbolism it holds for us at Westroad. Standing on the brink of what’s known and peering into what could be, this doorway is a metaphor for innovation and opportunity - a threshold inviting us to step into the future. At Westroad Group, every project starts with a vision, much like the view from this doorway: full of potential, ready to blend the classic with the cutting-edge. We don’t just construct buildings; we craft gateways to new possibilities, places where businesses thrive, families grow, and communities connect. This image captures more than just a moment; it encapsulates our commitment to thoughtful development and architectural integrity. It’s a reminder that each opening, each structured space holds the power to transform not just skylines but lives. As we move forward, let this doorway inspire us all to embrace the unknown with confidence and curiosity. What new opportunities are you stepping into today? How are you pushing through the thresholds that once seemed daunting? Let’s share our stories of stepping forward and building futures.

Thanks to Place North West for covering our campaign for greater ambition to be shown through proposals for the A6 through Stockport Council in line with national and regional guidance. 👇 If you agree, we also have a petition linked in the comments. 👀 In their words: RIDING THE GAUNTLET… Unhappy with Stockport Council’s plan for a revamped A6 between the town centre and Manchester, Walk Ride GM has drafted its own vision. Unlike the council’s proposals – which would send cyclists travelling to and from Manchester on an alternative parallel route – the lobby group’s version includes segregated cycle lanes along the A6 itself. “[Stockport’s] plan is to send cyclists down side roads and back alleys, doubling cycle journey time compared to the A6,” according to Walk Ride GM. The idea of protected cycle lanes is probably a good one on this particular stretch, which is more like a gauntlet than a road for those on two wheels. Walk Ride GM carried out an experiment on the two alternative routes that you can watch in the video above. https://lnkd.in/eWMeBWfG

For the last 9 months I've been a part of Western Program Alliance as the Design Manager for the Diggers Rest project. As we reach another project milestone in design, I've reflected on some of the reasons behind our successes to date: 1. Having the right people in the right roles - this is not just about putting experienced people in leadership roles but putting the right support in place for those stepping into technical leadership roles for the first time 2. Constructive communication - on a multi disc project you need people working collectively rather than delivering in silos. This includes early and regular engagement with the construction team during the design process. 3. Get back to basics - innovation may be sexy, but if you don't understand and spend time thinking about your design, your budget, your program, and your package interfaces then things will get ugly. We're currently in the process of finalising our construction packages ahead of site works in the coming months. After this project, the Sunbury line will be level crossing free! https://lnkd.in/gZHKK6y2 #LXRP #WPA #bigbuild #Arup McConnell Dowell #MottMac
