As part of a decades-long partnership with the City of Baton Rouge and Parish of East Baton Rouge (City-Parish) in Louisiana, Jacobs managed a $1.6 billion wastewater system upgrade program.
As Raleigh-Durham International Airport embarks on a major runway upgrade, Jacobs helped deliver a detailed safety plan to identify hazards, reduce risks and maintain public confidence in airport safety.
In the heart of Philadelphia’s University City, Jacobs works with Spark Therapeutics to create spaces that do more than support science — they elevate it. From a reimagined brutalist landmark to sleek, modern facilities, each environment was designed to reflect Spark’s mission and inspire innovation. The vibrant, human-centered spaces are building what matters: purposeful, brand-aligned spaces that empower discovery, collaboration and the future of gene therapy.
Jacobs worked with the Environment Agency and partners to sustainably build a new seawall and rock revetment in a £12 million ($15.6 million) flood defense scheme to protect over 3,000 properties and businesses along a stretch of the Essex coastline.
Jacobs supported rehabilitation and repairs of a 600-foot-long cargo wharf for the Port of Houston.
For more than 30 years, Jacobs has supported Vancouver, Washington, in designing, modernizing and operating its wastewater systems. Learn how an integrated approach helped the city enhance reliability, reduce risk and engage the community—all while preparing for a more sustainable future.
Jacobs is working with the City of Woodbury, Minnesota to design one of the largest drinking water treatment facilities for PFAS removal in the U.S.
Jacobs has worked with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency since 1999 on the clean-up strategy, design and implementation at the Velsicol Superfund site – restoring health and safety to residents and wildlife habitats along Pine River, Michigan.
