As a Senior Project Architect at LBBA, Fred Grier is leading several transformative projects, including multi-phased, mixed-income developments in the Parkside of Old Town neighborhood of Chicago and in Omaha, NE.

A commitment to design excellence led Fred from his first post-graduate job at JAHN in 2010 to Upton-Hansen Architects in London, where he worked on commercial and high-rise residential projects around the world, and then to Krueck Sexton Partners and Solomon Cordwell Buenz before joining LBBA. At LBBA, Fred continues a practice of providing creative, elegant solutions to the complex issues of affordable housing. Fred studied architecture at Taliesin, the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, and received his Master of Architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.

He and his family live in a Frank Lloyd Wright house in Oak Park.
