Tim Rowbottom, a principal with St. Louis-based Lawrence Group, was named in an article in the St. Louis Post Dispatch about pro-bono architecture work.

Rowbottom designed the interior for the Downtown Children’s Center in St. Louis on his first day at work and has been donating time to the project for four years. Several architects and designers at the Lawrence Group got involved in the children’s center and over the years have donated the equivalent of $90,000 in billable hours to the project, Rowbottom said.

St. Louis-based Kwame Building Group has been named program management consultant for the Airport Experience Program, a renovations campaign at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport.

Over a five-year period, the airport’s terminal, concourse and passenger support facilities will undergo renovations. Restoration of the airport’s domed ceilings will begin in mid-July; additionally, replacement of the interior baggage system and a $1.5 million roadway signage program will begin in early 2009.

One of the first projects will be a $5 million renovation of the inbound baggage handling systems and six carousels, which is expected to be complete in the spring of 2009. The program also includes renovation of the main terminal and concourses A, B and C.
