On August 28, 2011 a new memorial will be dedicated, on the National Mall, to honor the
life
and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This living memorial captures the essence of
Dr. King's
message of HOPE, JUSTICE, DEMOCRACY, and LOVE; with these we can
achieve PEACE.
MTTG Joint Venture is the architect and builder for this historic project. MTTG, comprised
of McKissack & McKissack, Turner Construction, Tompkins Builders and Gilford
Corporation, is a highly qualified, experienced and diverse design, construction
management and building team.
Together with the support of the project subcontractors, we are excited to have the
opportunity to contribute to the education of the next generation of architects, engineers
and
builders.
