Goody Clancy Planning + Urban Design

Over five decades of practice, our work has been characterized by an unwavering dedication to social responsibility and design excellence. Combining humanitarian purpose with visual distinction, we have planned and designed buildings, neighborhoods and open spaces which combine the firm’s strong skills in new building design, preservation and research. This experience is coupled with our interest in energizing the public and encouraging them to stake a claim in their future. The resulting practice is inclusive, collaborative and participatory. The varied nature of our work recomposes and revitalizes existing campuses and communities for the people who live and work in them.

 We are a firm of 100 architects, preservationists, planners and urban designers based in Boston and working nationally. From the firm’s inception to present day, we have integrated energy and resource conservation into our work. We take pride in the collaborative relationships we build with our clients, many of whom have worked with us repeatedly for decades.  Our work has been published extensively and has won numerous accolades for design excellence from such groups as the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the United Nations, the Urban Land Institute, and the Congress for the New Urbanism. We have won more than one hundred design awards, including six national AIA Honor awards.
