As a community-focused Chicagoland architecture firm, Planera + Reid understands that design is only the beginning of a building’s lifecycle. Through our real estate partner, Revere Properties, we extend our commitment beyond the drafting table — providing ongoing leadership, operational oversight, and stewardship for the spaces we help create.

From Comer College Prep to the Comer Youth Center and the Shaw Technology and Learning Center, Revere Properties serves as facility manager and owner’s project representative, ensuring each environment is not only constructed with integrity but maintained with long-term intention.

This integrated partnership — combining architectural expertise with engineering oversight and day-to-day facility management — strengthens our practice. It gives our Chicagoland architecture firm deeper insight into how buildings function over time, how systems perform under real-world conditions, and how spaces truly serve students, educators, and the broader community.

Through Revere Properties, we reinforce our commitment to accountability, durability, and the long-term success of every project.
