Headquartered in the heart of the Old Pueblo, The Planning Center is a woman-owned multi-disciplinary planning and landscape architecture firm located in Downtown Tucson that strives to develop practical land solutions through collaborative design and meaningful engagement. The Planning Center is a certified Small Business Enterprise (SBE) and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE).
Since its establishment in 1982, The Planning Center has led various planning and design initiatives throughout the Southwest, resulting in the development of award-winning projects, including the renowned master-planned communities Dove Mountain and Rancho Sahuarita.
The Planning Center is based on three core principles: COMMUNITY, CULTURE, and COMMITMENT.
COMMUNITY: We believe that community is integral to our ability to develop meaningful solutions. At The Planning Center, community means the people and places, flora and fauna, cultures and traditions, stories and history. We believe it is our job to strike a balance between creativity and practicality to bring people and places together.
CULTURE: We strive to cultivate a culture in the workplace that fosters comradery, creativity, and excellence. Our culture is simple: be the best you can be, be professional, and laugh a lot.
COMMITTED: We are committed to providing high-quality and achievable planning and design solutions. Our planning and design team includes expertise in both public and private sector planning. This diversity of experience helps us understand the dynamics of planning from both the community perspective and development perspectives, leading to a balanced, solutions-based approach.
