Ken joined Pappageorge/Haymes in 1983. As the firm’s most tenured associate, he provides special expertise in designing and executing technically complex projects. His responsibilities as senior project manager range from macro level planning to micro level construction document and construction phase participation.

Ken’s master-planning and residential development projects include mixed use, adaptive reuse and renovation developments. The list includes the West Market Homes in Reston, Virginia; Federal Square Townhomes and Landmark Village Townhomes.

Other notable projects in Chicago include The Park Monroe, Metropolitan Tower, The Montgomery, Domain, University Station, Dearborn Tower, Metropolitan Place, and Haberdasher Square.

Working in an urban environment, Ken has acquired a strong appreciation of adaptive reuse as a category that requires an architect to understand problems intimately and adapt quickly, to which his hands-on, in-the-field approach is well-suited.

Ken earned a Bachelor of Architecture from University of Illinois at Chicago in 1982. He began a career as a building survey consultant, and later worked at H.S Nachman & Associates as an electrical consultant specializing in reconstruction work.

His professional activities include membership in the American Institute of Architects and appearances as guest juror on design awards programs.

He is a registered architect in Illinois.
