Evans, PE, PLS, and David H. Gould on April 1, 1976. Specializing in subdivision design, our firm experienced tremendous growth during the national housing boom. Developers appreciated our firm’s gift for coaxing the maximum number of lots from a parcel of land while retaining existing trees, natural features, and the beauty of the landscape. This creative approach to design increased the value of the lots. Our firm’s sought-after services soon led to new offices in Washington State and the addition of land surveying and landscape architecture to DEA’s service offerings.
