Lord Aeck Sargent was honored to receive the Tower Award at the AIA North Carolina Design Awards for our work at Davidson College Oak Row.

The award recognizes projects by AIA North Carolina members that demonstrate excellence in historic preservation and adaptive reuse, including the rehabilitation of historic structures and new construction within historic contexts. Originally built in 1837 by enslaved individuals, Oak Row was carefully rehabilitated from a modest four-room dormitory into an exhibit space dedicated to reflection, dialogue, and acknowledging the people whose labor helped build and sustain the college. The project preserves the building’s historic character while creating new opportunities for education and engagement with its history.

We’re grateful to our project partners and proud to see this meaningful work recognized. Congratulations to all of this year’s award recipients!

Earlier this month, Lord Aeck Sargent gathered for our annual Hunter Lord Memorial Golf Tournament to honor Hunter’s legacy and lasting impact on the firm.

Colleagues teamed up for some friendly competition, continuing a tradition rooted in Hunter’s love of golf and bringing people together. As his father, Larry Lord, shared, “Hunter made golf a gift to others... He wanted everyone to feel included, to experience the good day on the course, the laughs, the sunshine.”

It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with colleagues, celebrate Hunter’s memory, and carry forward the sense of community he brought to the game.
