Great conversations at the Maryland Building Industry Association Montgomery County Chapter Annual Breakfast on May 15!

The event focused on important topics shaping Montgomery County, including housing, redevelopment, permitting, and economic growth. Speakers included Andrew Friedson and Artie Harris, who shared updates on the future of development in the County.

We were especially proud to see Kyle Soltesz lead the event as Chair of the Montgomery County Chapter and present the Malcolm Shaneman Quality of Life Award to Katherine Mencarini of the Montgomery County Planning Department.

Wishing everyone a meaningful Memorial Day. ❤️🤍💙

Today, we remember and honor those who sacrifice in service to our country. We’re grateful for the service members and their families who carry the weight of freedom for all of us.

We had a great time at the JTCC Gala and were proud to support our client’s mission. Phil Isaja attended on behalf of Soltesz.

We’re also excited to be working on the JTCC expansion—an indoor facility with six courts plus outdoor courts that will be home to the University of Maryland Women’s Tennis team.

We’re investing in the future of our team—and our projects.

This spring, Soltesz kicked off a Project Management Training Program for a group of emerging and mid-level leaders. The year-long program includes monthly sessions across our offices, focused on building the skills needed to lead projects from start to finish. The first sessions covered the role of a project manager and key fundamentals like planning, organizing, directing, and controlling project work. Because strong project delivery takes more than technical expertise—it takes great leadership.

Out in the field at Shady Grove Adventist Medical Center’s New Tower Expansion 🏗️

Jyotika Sharma, Dana Chiao, and Hannie Ta recently visited the site to support the contractor team and help address questions during construction.

We believe great projects require continuous involvement—from initial design through construction—so we can help solve challenges, keep things moving, and deliver strong results.

Our Director of Surveying, Garrett Culler, recently attended the West Virginia Society of Professional Surveyors Conference last month in Wheeling.

It was a great few days of learning and networking, with sessions covering everything from ethics to best practices in drone surveying and the integration of LiDAR and photogrammetry—tools that help teams work smarter and deliver strong results in the field.

Our Young Professionals group had a great night out at Muse Paintbar in Gaithersburg—paint, laughs, and plenty of team bonding. 🎨

The Young Professionals program is all about helping early and mid-career team members grow, connect across offices, and build strong working relationships. Events like this are a fun way to bring that to life outside the day-to-day.

Big thanks to Jesses Thill and Wing-Mei Ko for putting it together!

Big milestone in Rockville: the Planning Commission approved compatibility for a proposal to convert 2 Research Place—currently home to Soltesz’s corporate offices—into 68 two-over-two condominium homes.

A “Compatibility Finding” means the project is a good fit for its surroundings, including how it’s designed, scaled, and integrated with neighboring properties.

As the Chief of Zoning noted at the meeting, this project is the first project of its kind before the City’s Planning Commission—an early sign of the growing shift toward office-to-residential conversions.

We’re proud to support thoughtful site design that includes green buffering, outdoor spaces, and a strong connection to the surrounding community. Watch the full meeting here:
