Gannett Fleming Provides Design Services to Memorial Foundation


The Foundation is extremely fortunate to have Gannett Fleming, a world-wide leader in the engineering field, providing concept designs for the Cumberland County Law Enforcement Memorial.

Gannett Fleming was founded on August 1, 1915, as “Farley Gannett, Consulting Engineer,” at a time when sweeping changes were taking place in the country’s industrial development and economic patterns. Widespread and rapid urban growth, the need for mass transportation, and the evolution of the automobile were a few of the factors that created new demands and opportunities for engineering services. Gannett Fleming has been a major contributor to an outstanding and productive era in American engineering history.

The Gannett Fleming organization has evolved during the years from a two-man office at its inception to its current structure, a multi-disciplined group of companies with 2,000 highly qualified employees. Gannett Fleming has performed engineering services on thousands of diverse assignments in all 50 states and more than 65 countries.

Gannett Fleming’s invaluable design expertise will ensure a professional and proper tribute to those Law Enforcement Officers who sacrificed their lives in service to Cumberland County.
