RSH Architects working together with Marsico Corporation as a design/build team, presented the winning proposal for the Canonsburg/McMurray Carrier Annex development. Our firm provided site design and engineering services through our consultants as well as architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical designs and construction documents, based on the USPS prototype. RSH Architects worked closely with Marsico to develop material and system designs and specifications that met the performance criteria of the USPS and delivered a competitively priced project.

The building’s practical design results from a clear functional program and careful selection of materials to afford durability and low maintenance. The facade treatment presents a simple, yet appropriate interface to the public and surrounding commercial neighborhood. Interior color and material selections conform to USPS standards and specific directives of the local postmaster.

The total project timetable from award of design/build contract to owner occupancy was 19 months.
