Our integrated design capabilities range from site selection and master planning to landscape architecture and architecture.

Jacobs served as the executive architect for the casino resort, located on the river directly off the Boston Harbor in Everett, Massachusetts. The new 3.1 million SF complex features a modern, bronze-glass hotel holding more than 671 key-luxury rooms, a 210,000 SF casino, 37,000 SF ballroom, conference spaces, fine dining restaurants, high end retail shops and a spa, underground parking for over 2970 cars and a central utility plant.
Guiding the effort to build a five-star resort in one of the oldest and most densely populated U.S cities, Jacobs services included interfacing with local permitting authorities, adapting the design to the regional climate, implementing sustainable design with building systems that require half the typical usage, optimizing accessibility and coordinating with the construction efforts for an on time opening. Now open, the 27-floor resort is the largest private, single-phase development in the history of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and generated more than 5,000 jobs for the region thus far.
