Our Work
Projects Done Right the First Time
Nothing excites our group more than a brand new project. We start with our land surveying services to document existing conditions and then transition to planning and engineering. Over the last 25 years, JBPro has completed hundreds of projects of varying types, sizes, and complexities utilizing our surveying and engineering expertise and experience to do the job right. At JBPro, we work with our clients from start to finish to ensure that the project is of the highest quality and stands the test of time.

The Tioga Town Center is a 23-acre mixed-use development at the heart of the award-winning Town of Tioga planned development. This 23-acre project includes a mix of commercial, office, residential, and institutional uses.

Stephen C. O’Connell Center Renovation
Gainesville, FL |
The Stephen C. O’Connell Center, commonly referred to as the O’Dome, is the marquis sports and entertainment venue on the University of Florida campus. In 2015 the facility underwent a $60M renovation and addition project that transformed the venue into a modern state-of-the-art facility. JBPro was the surveying and civil engineering partner of Davis Architects, the prime architect for the project. The project was executed as a Design-Build project and included the renovation of the interior mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services, a new seating bowl in the dome, and the addition of 13,000 SF to create a new main east entrance. A new hardscape plaza on the east side of the building was created to serve as a hub for fan activities during games and other events. JBPro was responsible for the topographic surveying and civil engineering, including site design of the new east entry plaza, grading design, and construction inspection during the design-build process. The project was awarded LEED Platinum certification.

Cade Museum
Gainesville, FL |
The design and permitting of the first phase of the Cade Museum included a 26,000 SF museum building and associated utility, parking, and stormwater design. Phase 2 of the Cade Museum project, which JBPro is currently designing, will involve the construction of an additional 24,000 SF to the facility and a redesigned parking lot and hardscape improvements.
The concept for the organization and proportions of the Cade Museum for Creativity and Invention was influenced by the spiral of Fibonacci’s “Golden Ratio.” The museum was designed to imitate the Fibonacci spiral and only has two 90 degree angles in the entire building. The museum currently features a temporary exhibit space, interactive exhibits, two laboratories, a gift shop, an outdoor educational terrace, and a sculpture garden.

Wiles Elementary Parking Improvements
Gainesville, FL |
Alachua County Public Schools was faced with traffic circulation problems and a lack of adequate parking spaces at their Wiles Elementary school location, which was originally constructed in 1984. Due to added enrollment and changing drop-off and parking patterns, their entire parking facility needed to be redesigned. JBPro initiated the project with a parking study observing parent vehicular and bus traffic circulation for AM drop-off and PM pickup periods. The study indicated significant parking circulation redesign was called for along with the addition of many new parking spaces. JBPro performed a complete parking lot redesign that included revamped vehicular circulation, ADA accessibility, new stormwater management facilities, and parking lot lighting. The project was constructed over the summer and re-opened for the Fall 2020 semester.

JBPro was hired by the Gainesville CRA to design and permit a complete redevelopment of the Gainesville Technology Entrepreneurship Center (GTEC) on SE Hawthorne Rd. in East Gainesville. This 9.3-acre site was the home of the GTEC Incubator building since 2000, and an expansion and redesign of the site was desired to promote new development activity in East Gainesville. The site was completely redesigned with new site infrastructure to expand the overall campus. The expansion included new parking, utilities, and stormwater management systems to accommodate 5 new building pad-ready sites. The project involved multiple community outreach workshops and public meetings to ensure the project was received positively by the surrounding community and extensive permitting effort with the City of Gainesville, SJRWMD, GRU, and FDEP.
The redevelopment was very successful and included site-specific updates designed to accommodate the first new tenant in the business park when Merieux Nutrisciences constructed their new Gainesville food testing laboratory building on Pad C. The project was performed under a City of Gainesville Continuing Services contract with the CRA., and the site civil project budget was $1,850,000.
