Located on 9th Street, just off 4th Avenue the property is one block from the 4th Avenue gateway into Downtown Tucson and perfect for the company that is working on several Downtown Tucson projects.

Founded by Ron Schneider, Schneider & Associates Structural Engineers, Inc. opened in Tucson in 1999, expanded to Anchorage in 2003 and to Phoenix in 2007. In September 2011, the firm started doing business as Schneider Structural Engineers. In addition to Arizona and Alaska, the firm is also licensed in other states nationwide.

Schneider Structural Engineers will be moving from its office at Campbell Plaza to its new ideal location closer to its current multiple Downtown projects.
