In 1968, William Truex Jr joined Eugene Alexander and formed a new architecture firm in the small city of Burlington, Vermont. From the very beginning, the firm's civic role established a clear focus on urban planning and the design of buildings that serve a public purpose. The new firm made an indelible mark on their hometown when, in the early 1970s, Bill Truex developed the first design concept for the Church Street Marketplace.
Inspired by the pedestrian plazas of Europe, Bill joined a small group of Burlington's civic leaders and initiated a pilot project, closing a busy downtown street to traffic to test the feasibility of a new pedestrian core for Burlington's downtown. The project was a success and led to the active planning and design of the pedestrian marketplace over the following decade.
Bill's leadership resulted in the permanent removal of vehicle traffic from Church Street and its conversion into the award-winning Church Street Marketplace. The project involved an unprecedented closing of a major vehicular artery to create pedestrian linkages throughout the downtown area.

Services
Your home should sustain you, and connect you to our natural world; whether within a neighborhood or on the edge of a wooded meadow.
This defines a good house.
At TruexCullins we combine an understanding of art, craft and technology - and bring those skills to the making of beautiful homes that feel right in their setting.
A major part of what we do is make houses that look out; that include the outdoor environment as part of the design.
We like to think of this as blurring some of the boundaries between the inside and the outside.

Our multi-family projects include apartments, condominiums, dormitories, and mixed-use developments.
TruexCullins designs these buildings to be at home with their surroundings, to make a positive contribution to the neighborhood, and to engage the street to encourage pedestrian access and increased community activity.
These multi-family projects also decrease our environmental footprint, consolidating resources and deploying them much more strategically.
