Sustainability at Parsons Brinckerhoff

Development of infrastructure requires not only technical excellence but also “the mind and the knowledge to conceive that which is useful and will be for the convenience of mankind in the long run.”

It is “not the design that governs, but its adaptability to the economic and social needs of the time.”

- William Barclay Parsons (1859-1932)
