Stewarding Maine’s future

We foster connection and community between the people who live here and the places they do business, and we are designing and building a more sustainable Maine for all.

Our process

Knickerbocker Group embodies a commitment to deliver exceptional results on every project, making a lasting, positive impact on our clients, communities, people, business partners and our industry.

Consult

We will discuss your goals and needs and how we can meet them. We’ll help you craft a vision rooted in reality, with price estimates to build out your pro forma.

Planning

Our landscape architects map out the vision with their expertise in master planning: urban parks, college campuses, residential eco-farms, and large-scale hospitality resorts.

Schematics

Our architectural team creates the vision in 3D, while mapping out the path to bring your project to life, providing insight and foresight while assembling a team of engineering and building science experts.

Design Development

It is time to refine your custom design, from materials to construction—quality is in the details. We specialize in innovative construction practices and products that are unique to Maine’s climate.

Preconstruction

Our preconstruction project managers set the stage for building, outlining goals and expectations for the team. They make recommendations along the way to guide product selections toward a successful budget outcome.

Construction

We manage the schedule and the budget, providing transparency and communication through to the end. We work with the owner’s team to transition smoothly from construction to operations.

Knickerbocker Group Portland Office

Our 6,200-square-foot Portland offices showcase our firm’s focus on craftsmanship and innovative design.

The team at Knickerbocker Group collaborated with the Y to develop a master facility plan for our main campus and 67 acre day camp. With their leadership, we have amazing new spaces! I can’t say enough about Knickerbocker’s architects and construction management team, their attention to detail and design, along with their ability to provide creative solutions helped the Y achieve its strategic goals—welcoming atmosphere, improved efficiencies, increased capacity, and multi use spaces to meet the ever-changing needs of our community. Thank you with partnering with the Y, together we have made ‘a greater impact.’
