Vessel Architecture

Greater Goods is one of those projects that reminds us why adaptive reuse matters.

Originally built in 1911 as the Laclede Gas Light Company Pumping Station G, this century-old industrial building had serious history and serious potential. Our work with Greater Goods was about giving that legacy a next chapter: transforming a historic structure into a modern, functional headquarters while respecting what made the building special in the first place.

Projects like this take more than good design. They take patience, technical rigor, and the right team especially when you’re navigating historic tax credits and brownfield credits and working within the constraints (and opportunities) of an existing structure.

The best part? When it’s done well, the building doesn’t feel frozen in time, it feels alive again, ready to serve people today while carrying its story forward.

Architecture Week Kick-Off: Where It All Begins ✨

It’s Architecture Week—a time to celebrate the ideas, process, and people behind the built environment.

We’re kicking things off at the very beginning.

This is a schematic bubble diagram—a quick, early study that helps us define relationships before we draw walls. What needs to be next to what? Where are the key adjacencies? How should people move through the space?

It’s not about perfection. It’s about setting the right foundation for everything that comes next.
