DP3 Architects Sponsors the 2024 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb

DP3 Architects is proud to be an annual sponsor of the Greenville City Fire Department 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb. On Saturday, September 7th DP3 team members joined local firefighters, first responders, and supporters for this annual event at Fluor Field.

The Memorial Stair Climb, organized by the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, honors each of the 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice on September 11^th, 2001. Each participant pays tribute by climbing a total of 2200 stairs, symbolizing the 110 stories of the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers. This physical challenge serves as a powerful reminder of the bravery and sacrifice displayed by first responders on that day.

All donations to the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb will be used to fund programs provided by the NFFF to support the families of your local fallen firefighters and the FDNY Counseling Service Unit.

2024 “Market Days”

DP3 Architects is proud to have wrapped up their second-annual “Market Days” initiative, a program dedicated to supporting local farmers’ markets and fostering community engagement throughout the Greenville area. Launched in 2023, this initiative underscores DP3 Architects’ commitment to the Upstate communities it serves.

DP3 Architects recognizes the vital role that farmers markets play in promoting healthy lifestyles, supporting local economies, and providing fresh, locally sourced food to the community. “Farmers’ Markets are vibrant community hubs that bring people together and enhance the quality of life in our communities.” said Mike Pry, Principal and Community Studio Leader at DP3 Architects. “Our ‘Market Days’ initiative is all about celebrating these benefits and encouraging more people to participate in their local farmers markets.”

This year, DP3 Architects expanded it’s impact by becoming the first-ever event sponsor of the Travelers Rest Farmers’ Market’s annual “Tomato Sandwich Taste-Off” event. This sponsorship allowed 100 percent of ticket sales to be used for the operation of the Travelers Rest Farmers’ Market, which supports 130+ local businesses and farms. Beyond Travelers Rest, the program supports several upstate markets including the Greer Farmers’ Market, the Fountain Inn Farmers’ Market, and Spartanburg’s Hub City Farmers’ Market.

As DP3 Architects continues to grow, the firm remains dedicated to its core values of People Places and Purpose. Through initiatives like “Market Days,” DP3 Architects hopes to create a lasting impact that not only enhances the built environment, but also the quality of life in the communities where we live, work, and play. This ongoing effort reflects the firm’s belief that true success comes from giving back to the community, fostering relationships, and creating environments that enrich people’s lives.
