What Lamoureux Pagano Associates | Architects does

Lamoureux Pagano Associates | Architects is a privately held, Worcester, Massachusetts–based architectural practice founded in 1970 and marking its 55th year in 2025. The firm operates from a single office at 108 Grove Street with a staff of approximately 19, providing architecture, feasibility, historic preservation, and sustainable-design services to public-sector clients across Central Massachusetts.

Its core offering is institutional and civic architecture, principally K-12 schools (including Massachusetts School Building Authority–eligible projects), higher-education facilities, libraries, and municipal buildings. Technical capabilities are anchored by multiple LEED-accredited professionals, at least one CPHC-credentialed designer, VR visualization (Enscape3D), existing-conditions scanning, and partnerships such as its sustainability collaboration with The Green Engineer. The Doherty Memorial High School — a 420,000 sq ft new-build for the City of Worcester opened in 2024 — represents the firm's largest single commission to date.

The business model is fee-for-service architecture on a project basis, with revenue generated primarily through municipal and institutional capital-project contracts (K-12, higher education, civic/library) won via competitive procurement and MSBA processes. Notable repeat clients include the City of Worcester, College of the Holy Cross, WPI, Clark University, and the Towns of Westborough and Shrewsbury. The firm is privately held with no external investors, and revenue is not publicly disclosed.
