We are happy to announce that after 43 years at PBWS, Gregory Sun is entering semi-retirement at the close of 2021.  Greg will assume the title of Partner Emeritus and will continue to advise and consult at PBWS on a part-time basis. The firm will continue under the capable leadership of partners Barton Anderson, Wade Frazier, and Kirstyn Bonneau. Greg’s continuing presence at PBWS will help assure a seamless transition of projects to each assigned Partner-In-Charge and will be an ongoing resource to the firm with his accumulated institutional knowledge and expertise.

 

Greg says, “I am very grateful to the many clients who have supported us over the decades, to the consultants who have been creative and collaborative design partners, and to the loyal staff members whose fellowship and friendships have enriched my life enormously.  PBWS’s future is bright.  The firm will successfully meet new challenges with the positivity, energy, and equanimity that have been the hallmarks of the firm since its founding.”

 

Highlights of Greg’s long career include the PCC Community Education Center, the Lodge at Camp Paivika, Margaret Bundy Scott Child Development Center, Century Square, Roxbury Park Clubhouse, Crown House.  Greg also developed a passion for universal design and became an expert in accessible design.  He earned the designation of Certified Access Specialist from the state of California; the sixth person in the state to do so.  Under his leadership, the firm has surveyed millions of square feet of existing building area and assisted clients to make their facilities accessible to people of varying abilities.

 

All of us at PBWS appreciate Greg’s leadership and friendship over the many years.We wish him all the best as he embarks on his next adventures.
