About GMC Mobile

Overlooking Mobile Bay and the downtown cityscape, GMC’s Mobile office resides in Alabama’s tallest building – the RSA Battle House Tower. Downtown Mobile is a hub for economic growth and development and is a melting pot of people and cultures. GMC is grateful to be a part of the Mobile community and to work on significant local projects like the Map for Mobile Comprehensive Plan, Africatown Heritage House and other projects that will help foster a positive and engaged community for years to come. Whether celebrating Mardi Gras with the rest of the city, or whipping up our award-winning recipe for the American Cancer Society’s Annual Chili Cook-Off, we’re proud to be part of the Mobile community.

Mobile Projects

Dauphin Island East End Beach & Dune Restoration

Dauphin Island is a cherished part of Alabama’s coastline, the 14-mile-long barrier island south of Mobile is home to beautiful beaches and a wide variety of species that inhabit the sky, sea and sand. However, erosion, hurricanes and the passage of time have threatened these critical environments.

Three Mile Creek Trunk Sewer Upgrades

The water main relocation and sanitary sewer rehabilitation project included rerouting existing water mains from within existing sanitary sewer gravity mains and manholes and repairing the sewer manholes and/or gravity mains. The project included addressing conflicts at approximately 60 different locations within the City of Mobile, most of which were located downtown.

Grand Hotel Resort and Spa

GMC was retained by PCH Hotels and Resorts to design the $32 million renovation of The Grand Hotel. Every room at the 170-year-old Grand Hotel was given a new look as the hotel joins the exclusive group of only 100 independent-style properties worldwide as part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection.

Riviera Utilities Wastewater Treatment Facility Upgrade

Riviera Utilities executed a contract with GMC to upgrade the Wolf Creek Wastewater Treatment Facility in Foley, Alabama due to future nutrient limits and to increase capacity due to rapid economic growth in the service area and future anticipated growth. The major challenge with upgrading the biological process and increasing capacity was the limited amount of available space at the plant and having to keep the existing process in operation during construction.

D’Olive Stream Restoration

The D’Olive Stream Restoration reach extends from Interstate 10 to the downstream terminus at Highway 90 in Daphne, Alabama. With an estimated 1,700 tons of sediment per year eroding from the streambanks, the purpose of this project was to address the instability of the creek and reduce sediment loading.

Map for Mobile

GMC was the planning team lead, and worked alongside Planning Next, Dover, Kohl & Partners and Kimley-Horn Associates. The group provided comprehensive long-range planning for the city of Mobile. The plan includes neighborhood revitalization strategies, plans for greenways and trails, and a substantial change in how transportation is planned and managed within the city.
