Rome, NY is a community shaped by civic pride and a genuine commitment to the animals and people it serves. At OLSON LEWIS + Architects, our animal care design work here is guided by four principles: meaningful community engagement, thoughtful space allocation, operational efficiency, and long-term effectiveness. New facilities are planned to integrate naturally within the neighborhood — responding to community concerns while creating spaces that invite participation. Every layout is optimized for the workflow of animal care, so staff can focus on what matters most and the animals in their care receive the environment they need.
