The new Jazz District Parking Garage is officially open—just in time to welcome KC visitors during the FIFA World Cup! This is one of several improvements for “Revive the Vine”, a reinvestment initiative to revitalize and restore the historic 18th & Vine Jazz District.

This building brings much-needed parking spaces to the neighborhood while doubling as an art piece, with 470 new spots across four levels and 150,000 square feet. FSC provided the MEP and fire protection engineering design for this important project on a team with DRAW Architecture.

Drivers have a new temporary home for their cars in Kansas City's historic Jazz District.

We're pleased to share that Fire Protection Specialist Chuck Thacker has been appointed to the NFPA Technical Committee on Aviation Facilities (AIS-AAA), where he will be representing FSC. This prestigious committee is responsible for guiding the development of NFPA 409, 415, and 423, which outline requirements for protecting life and property within aircraft hangars, terminals, and engine test facilities.

Chuck brings a robust combination of credentials to this role: decades of experience as a Fire Marshal and Fire Chief, certification as a Certified Building Official, and deep expertise in fire protection engineering, fire risk analysis, and building compliance.

Having worked within the fire service and on the code enforcement side of fire protection, he has a first-hand understanding of how standards shape real-world outcomes. It is through his work at FSC on many aviation projects that this breadth of experience was recognized by NFPA on a national level.

Chuck’s participation in this committee will shape standards that govern some of the most complex and high-stakes facilities in fire protection. His involvement speaks to his dedication to fire protection, safety standards, and ultimately, protecting people and property.

Please join us in congratulating Chuck on this significant achievement! 👏 👏

Last Friday, members of FSC’s office took time out of their afternoons to volunteer with Hillcrest Transitional Living, an organization dedicated to supporting individuals and families facing homelessness and housing insecurity. We were tasked with weeding, mulching, and seeding two buildings at their Overland Park campus. Despite the looming clouds, we managed to finish up just before the downpour hit! 🌧️ 🌧️

A big thank you to Hillcrest for providing us an opportunity to give back to our local community and support their mission in this small way. You can learn more about what they do here: https://hillcrestkc.org/about/

At FSC, we strive to be responsible stewards of the earth. When we're engaged as MEP engineers, our key objective is to minimize environmental impact by reducing energy and water consumption, minimizing waste, and constructing buildings that will last.

Being mindful of our earth's resources doesn't stop with how we approach projects–it extends to our own building. FSC's headquarters is proudly Energy Star Certified by the EPA. ✅

We're always looking for new ways to incorporate sustainable practices into our work, and Earth Day is a reminder that we should be considering that every day–not just April 22.

Yesterday, FSC's Randall Frymire attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Jackson County Detention Center, a state-of-the-art facility replacing the overcrowded, deteriorating downtown jail.

We're very proud to have played a significant role on this project, with all four of our divisions being involved in different capacities: as members of the Owner's Representative team for MEP and commissioning, and as code consultants and fire protection engineers for the design team.

This new building is focused on enacting justice with dignity, featuring spaces with natural light, open-air courtyards, gyms, 1,000 beds, and two courtrooms. FSC is glad to have been a part of the team who made it happen!

Engineering is much more than just an occupation. It takes a special type of person to pursue a career in this field, and FSC is proud to celebrate those individuals during Engineers Week each year.

For 2026, our festivities included a happy hour and bingo, trivia, and plenty of meal-based events (because how can an engineer do their important work on an empty stomach?) 🍕🌮
