From concept to community, our 2026 summer interns put their skills to the test! 🏗️💡
As part of this year’s PS&S Summer Internship Project, our interns were divided into multidisciplinary teams and challenged to develop proposals for three unique projects:
Team 1: Riverview Data Center Campus
Team 2: Riverview Riverfront Commons Mixed-Use Development
Team 3: Riverview Historic Firehouse Renovation
Each team was given its own set of project goals, challenges, budget considerations, and township and community priorities. The competition gave our interns an opportunity to experience how different disciplines come together to solve real-world design and engineering challenges while balancing technical requirements, budgets, client needs, and community priorities.
Congratulations to Team 3 for winning this year's competition and congratulations to all of our interns for the creativity, collaboration, and hard work they brought to this year’s challenge. We’re proud of what you accomplished this summer!
A special thank you to our PS&S project sponsors who shared their time, expertise, and guidance with our interns throughout the challenge. Dan Caldwell, Vice President, and Kris McCool, Senior Project Executive, supported Team 1; Helena Dimitrov, Project Controls Manager, and Jesper Ryberg, Vice President of Architecture, supported Team 2; and Marge Della Vecchia, Senior Project Executive, and Michael Cohen, Senior Vice President of Structural, supported Team 3. Their mentorship helped our interns navigate their projects, think through real-world challenges, and gain valuable insight from experienced professionals across PS&S.
As our summer internship program comes to a close and many of our interns head back to school, we want to thank them for everything they contributed to PS&S this summer. We wish you all the best in the upcoming school year and can’t wait to see where your education and future careers take you!
Thank you for spending your summer with PS&S! 💙
