This peer driven group of 16 architects and other design professionals met once a month for a year to network and to explore and learn about Kansas City topics such as STEM education, politics and advocacy, academia and mentorship, business and legal issues, project delivery and partnership, communication methodologies, outreach, industry trends and economic development.

While completing her Health and Wellness Certificate at KU, Erin interned at a Kansas City-based firm with a focus in healthcare. In 2020, Erin pursued her interests in healthcare architecture, but rejoined the firm in November of 2021 as her ultimate passion is multi-family housing.

Ribbon Cutting Marks Opening of Scott Manor, Phase I and Groundbreaking of Phase II, North St. Louis County
A dual ceremony of the grand opening of Scott Manor, Phase I and the groundbreaking of Scott Manor, Phase II was held on a warm summer day last week to celebrate the progress of the master-planned development in North St. Louis County. The project continues to bring new momentum to a 10-acre site built on a former location of aging and underutilized single-family homes into a mixed use, affordable, independent senior living community located at Chambers & New Halls Ferry Roads. Residents were welcomed into Scott Manor, Phase I in January of 2021 – the property maintains a continuous wait list and is 100% occupied.
Rosemann & Associates, P.C. celebrated this exciting day together with members of the ownership team, as well as local community public officials and dignitaries. Developer partner Bishop Calvin Scott of BTWF Urban Initiative welcomed the guests and offered opening remarks. Current Scott Manor resident Jacqueline Richardson, 81, commented that she appreciates such quality housing where she can remain in her community and reside near her church. Developer Kevin Buchek of Oakland Group, LLC emphasized the importance of creating affordable housing that benefits the senior population in the north St. Louis County community. He recognized and thanked the many individuals who have played an important role in the movement of this development.
Ground has broken on a Scott Manor, Phase II, which delivers a 3-story modern building spanning approximately 51,762 SF with 14 one-bedroom units and 36 two-bedroom units for low-income seniors ages 62 and up. Forty-five units are restricted to occupation by households at or below 60% of area median income (5 market rate). Three fully accessible units and two audio and visual impairment accessible units are available. The building will meet Enterprise Green Communities specifications for energy efficiency towards lowering utility costs for resident and reducing housing cost burdens.
“We celebrate the progress of bringing new affordable, attractive, service enriched housing to the North County area. It is an honor to work with co-developers, Oakland Group, LLC and BTWF Urban Initiative, as they continually prioritize providing amenity spaces aimed at improving the quality of life of the residents and maintaining a sense of community.” said Rosemann’s architectural team member, John Williams.
Phase II’s exterior is cladded with split face masonry block in contrast with the bold red board and batten panels at the building bump outs. Contrasting lap siding is used in between each exterior bump out. A wide canopy is being installed at the main entry welcoming residents into the front lobby. The interior lobby opens into a large sitting area equipped with a central fireplace. Other amenities include a community space with a full kitchen on the first floor, fitness center, computer area, and additional community areas on upper floors.
Scott Manor, Phase II is made possible with the strong support of St. Louis County, as well as key funding in part by Missouri Housing Development Commission and the partnership between St. Louis Equity Fund, Inc., Sugar Creek Capital, Legacy Bank and Trust, and developers Oakland Group, LLC and BTWF Urban Initiative.

Emily Herzog joined our Kansas City team in the spring of 2022. She is a graduate of the University of Missouri with a degree in Architectural Studies. Emily spent a little over a year designing high-end single-family homes before she moved to Chicago, IL to work in healthcare solutions and survey hospitals around the Country.
Emily gained architectural experience in all phases of residential design before stepping away from the traditional architecture field to work in healthcare management solutions for over 5 years. During this time, she surveyed hospitals and worked with clients on updating architectural and fire safety drawings, as well as updating databases for hospital management use.
At Rosemann, Emily works with management to produce detailed design materials, including renderings and models that allow the clients to evaluate and approve the design. She also prepares documents with full construction details that enables the project to be built, attends client meetings to establish requirements and discuss detailed design proposals, and attends site visits.
While away from work, Emily enjoys playing the piano and being outside with her dog.
Bridgeton, MO: Youth in Need’s Young Professionals Group presented their annual Trivia Night and Auction on Friday, May 20th at the Bridgeton Recreation Center. Rosemann was pleased to sponsor and participate at this important, fun-filled evening, which included 10 Rounds of trivia, a silent auction, raffles and more!
All proceeds from the event benefited the continuation and growth of Youth in Need’s programs such as, early childhood development, street outreach, residential programs, crisis counseling and foster care—serving nearly 10,000 children, youth and families each year.
Although the competition was fierce, Rosemann’s team dominated the artist, band and pop culture categories. Luckily, they correctly answered that ‘Cement Pond’ is the right nickname for the Beverly Hillbillies’ swimming pool. Our enthusiastic table of architects became stumped at the question, “What is Cavendish?” They now know and will never forget that cavendish is a type of fruit, a banana!
Rosemann’s architectural team member and Youth in Need board member Drew Jablonski said, “the night surpassed our fundraising target, raising over $4,000. Thanks to all of the sponsor and to more than 130 people and 16 teams for your attendance. We had a great time, and we are grateful for everyone’s participation.”
