“MGMP are the only consultants I know of that treat each project as unique. They don‘t use a cookie-cutter approach.”
“Much of the success of our facility—a facility that will be far more integrated with and responsive to the needs and aspirations of our community—can be traced back to the foundational work of MGMP.”
