CHICAGO, IL — From the rise of flexible learning environments and “aging in place” housing to the integration of smart technology in public parks, new trends across public-sector construction in America are defining the built environment in 2026. These shifts in infrastructure, housing, parks and recreation, municipal, and education construction are the focus of a new five-part series released today by nationally-recognized infrastructure builder F.H. Paschen. The recently-published collection provides public agencies and administrators with a comprehensive roadmap to navigate modern project delivery and build more resilient communities.
Covering infrastructure, housing, parks and recreation, municipal and education construction, the 2026 Construction Trends Series from F.H. Paschen highlights emerging trends that are defining the built environment in 2026 and provides a guidebook for elected leaders, public agencies and administrators to build better communities and public progress.
The full five-part 2026 Construction Trends Series includes:
“We created this continuing-education series to help elected officials and government employees understand emerging trends in other districts to begin to apply them back home,” said Tom Cross of F.H. Paschen. “These guides empower agencies to learn from what’s working and help them see around corners by applying the learnings to their operations.”
Headquartered in Chicago with offices across the country, F.H. Paschen builds the bridges, transit systems, airports, schools, public safety facilities and water plants that keep American communities moving.
