The Schwerbelastungskörper is a test structure built in 1942 at the direction of Albert Speer, to see if the ground here would be able to the bear the weight of the vast Triumphal Arch which the Nazi regime planned to build to commemorate the First World War. It is 14m high, its basements extend to a depth of 18.2m, and it remained in use for its original purpose until 1977, although several centimetres of subsidence was already noticeable by the end of the war.

Pelham Ridge Elementary School was designed by Goodwyn Mills Cawood. Pelham Ridge Elementary is the first new construction school designed for the newly-formed Pelham City School Board. The new elementary school is a two-story brick and stone building with wood elements, which reflects the desired character and materiality of the existing schools in the district. Pelham Ridge incorporates a variety of learning environments in addition to the typical classroom. These supplemental learning spaces include two “break-out” learning spaces, a flexible classroom, and two courtyards. Two of the classroom wings adjacent to the courtyards are designed to function as storm shelters and meet the Alabama Building Commission’s state standard for storm shelters, ICC 500.

The City of Hoover has seen enormous growth in its sports programs over the past 10 years and needed a new complex that would fulfill their existing needs, allow for growth and give the City the ability to create new revenue streams and take advantage of sports tourism by hosting large tournament events. Hoover had not built any new athletic facilities in 15 years. At the same time the City’s sports participation had increased by multiples of 200% - 500% depending on the sport. The growth was caused by increases in both youth and adult sports leagues, as well as the relatively recent popularity of additional sports.
The multi-purpose Finley Center, which connects to the existing Hoover Met baseball stadium with a covered walkway, is able to accommodate a full-size football or soccer field, nine regulation-size basketball courts, 12 regulation-size volleyball courts or six indoor tennis courts. It can also seat 2,400 for banquets and 5,000 for events with general seating, such as a graduation ceremony or concert. Additional features of the indoor facility include a recreational walking track suspended 14 feet in the air, an athletic training and rehab center, and a food court.
The Finley Center sits on a 120 acre site that GMC master planned and includes fields for soccer, lacrosse, football, baseball and softball, tennis courts, a play ground walking track and splash pad.
Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood (GMC) provided master planning, architecture, interior design, civil engineering, construction materials testing, and environmental engineering services for this project.

Sculptor Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi is credited with bringing the concept of the Statue of Liberty to fruition, deriving inspiration from the 19th-century penchance for grandiose monuments. He originally designed the statue for placement at the Suez Canal, but the project was never commissioned. After a promotional trip across America, Bartholdi's ideas finally took hold in 1874, and a Franco-American coalition was formed to fund the project, with the Americans building the base and the French the statue. Bartholdi delivered the statue in pieces: first the arm and torch, then the head, and finally the body.
French engineer Gustave Eiffeldesigned the intricate skeleton for the statue, an iron frame that supports the copper-sheathed exterior. American architect Richard Morris Hunt designed the pedestal.
