Miguel Rosales Totally Explained

Everything about Miguel Rosales totally explained

Miguel Rosales (born in Guatemala in 1961) is president and principal designer of Rosales + Partners, a transportation architecture firm based in Boston, Massachusetts. Mr. Rosales is recognized internationally as an expert on bridge aesthetics and design; he's more than 20 years of experience in urban design and bridge architecture. His thorough understanding of both structure and design allows him to conceive bridges that are both innovative and visually outstanding. Working closely with the community and accepting their input on the design, he creates bridges that become sources of pride and symbols of the areas in which they're built.
Mr. Rosales was the lead architect and urban designer for Boston’s Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge over the Charles River and the Liberty Bridge in Greenville, South Carolina. His current major U.S. bridge projects include the East End Bridge over the Ohio River in Louisville, Kentucky; a new pedestrian bridge over the Trinity River in Fort Worth, Texas, and four pedestrian bridges across the Belt Shore Parkway in New York City. He has received grants from the NEA, AIA/AAF, and MIT to research bridge and infrastructure design and is the recipient of several awards including a 1993 Young Architects Design Award from Progressive Architecture magazine.
