TFMoran & Family Enjoy a Night at the NH Fisher Cats

This past Friday, July 10th TFM & Family enjoyed a night at  Northeast Delta Dental Stadium for a night of fun, food, as the New Hampshire Fisher Cats took on the Portland Sea Dogs.

While the Fisher Cats came up just short with a final score of 7–5, the night was filled with plenty of fun, laughter, and time to connect outside the office. Everyone enjoyed classic ballpark favorites, including burgers, hot dogs, mac & cheese, and potato salad.

Nick Golon Named President and Chief Engineer of TFMoran

Bedford, N.H. July 8, 2026– TFMoran, a leading engineering and surveying firm serving northern New England since 1968, has appointed Nick Golon, PE, as President and Chief Engineer, effective July 1, 2026. Golon succeeds Robert Duval, PE, who announced in May that he would step down as President while continuing as Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Golon joined TFMoran in 2005 and has served for the past six years as a Principal and head of the firm’s Civil Engineering Department. He is the fourth President in TFMoran’s 58-year history.

Golon credited TFMoran’s thoughtful succession planning as a foundation for the firm’s continued momentum. “The future is always in motion. Throughout its history, TFMoran has adapted quickly, stayed nimble and evolved to meet the needs of its clients and communities. I’m excited for what’s ahead as we remain deeply committed to the clients, communities and colleagues who define our firm.”

Raised in Maine’s Lakes Region, Golon developed an early interest in engineering through his seventh-grade shop teacher and a bridge-building competition, where his bridge earned first place. He continued that path through drafting and design classes at Lake Region High School’s vocational center before attending Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering Technology. While at Wentworth, Golon gained hands-on co-op experience as a field surveyor and field engineer on projects including the Kendall Station Repowering project in Cambridge, Mass., and Boston’s Big Dig.

Golon brings more than 25 years of civil engineering experience across a broad range of projects and is licensed in New Hampshire and Maine. During his tenure at TFMoran, he has led some of the firm’s largest site development projects, including the Merrimack Station Clean Air Project, a major pollution-control upgrade designed to significantly reduce mercury and nitrogen oxide emissions, and the Village on Technology Hill, a 110-acre mixed-use live-work-play development that integrates residential, commercial, and industrial uses in a walkable, environmentally focused community.

Golon has served on the Board of Directors of the New Hampshire Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), including as President, and continues to support ASCE’s education committee, which raises more than $20,000 annually for scholarships awarded to high school and college students. He also serves on the Project Committee for NeighborWorks Southern New Hampshire, helping recommend projects that advance the organization’s mission to enhance people’s lives and the community environment by providing access to quality housing. Outside work and community service, Golon lives with his wife and three children on their 1785 homestead in Bedford, N.H. He enjoys gardening, landscaping, following the Boston Celtics and New England Patriots, and telling stories around the campfire with his family.

“Our past presidents established a strong legacy of technical excellence, steady leadership, and trusted client service, and I look forward to continuing that progress,” Golon said. “TFMoran’s strength has always come from its people and from the long-standing relationships we have built with our clients, partners, and communities. As we move forward, we will remain focused on delivering thoughtful, practical solutions while supporting the next generation of engineers, surveyors, and design professionals who will carry the firm into the future.”

TFMoran Celebrates Ribbon Cutting at The Village on Technology Hill

Despite rainy skies, excitement remained high as project partners, state officials, and community leaders gathered on Tuesday to celebrate the ribbon cutting for The Village on Technology Hill in Londonderry, New Hampshire. The milestone marks a significant step forward for one of the state’s largest mixed-use developments, bringing together residential, commercial, and industrial spaces designed to support New Hampshire’s growing workforce and economy.

TFMoran is proud to have provided civil and structural engineering services for this transformative 110-acre development, working alongside North Branch Construction, developer Ken and Grace Solinsky, and Stone River Architects to help bring the vision to life.

The ceremony featured remarks from several project partners and distinguished guests, including Governor Kelly Ayotte, U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan, U.S. Representative Chris Pappas, and other state and local leaders. TFMoran’s newly appointed President and Chief Engineer, Nick Golon, PE, also addressed attendees, highlighting both the opportunities and engineering challenges presented by the site.

“This site is truly magnificent, spanning more than 110 acres with over 120 feet of elevation change,” Golon said. “It offers mountain views, and on a clear day— not today—and even a glimpse of the Boston skyline.

Nick also spoke about the complexities of designing the project, noting the site’s steep slopes, extensive ledge, limited buildable shelf space, and surrounding wetlands. Through close collaboration with the project team, TFMoran developed engineering solutions that transformed the rugged terrain into a vibrant mixed-use community designed for generations to come.

Following the ribbon cutting, guests toured the newly completed apartment homes and commercial spaces while enjoying food trucks and local vendors stationed throughout the property. Although the weather was less than ideal, the rain did little to dampen the celebration as attendees experienced firsthand the scale and vision of the development.

The Village on Technology Hill will ultimately include 440 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments across nine residential buildings centered around a three-acre village green featuring walking trails, a playground, dog park, and community gathering spaces. The mixed-use campus will also include industrial facilities, retail space, an Easterseals New Hampshire childcare center serving up to 200 children, and pedestrian-friendly connections designed to create a true live-work-play environment.

As one of the largest privately funded developments currently underway in New Hampshire, The Village on Technology Hill represents an exciting investment in the region’s future. TFMoran is honored to have played an integral role in the engineering and design of this landmark project and congratulates the entire project team on reaching this exciting milestone. We look forward to seeing the community continue to grow as additional phases are completed over the coming years!

Two TFMoran Projects Receive Plan NH Merit Award of Excellence

TFMoran is pleased to have been part of two award-winning project teams recognized by Plan NH for excellence in planning, design, and development across New Hampshire.

One of the honored projects was Apartments @ 249 Main in Nashua, where TFMoran provided civil engineering, land surveying, and landscape architecture services. Working alongside project owner and developer NeighborWorks Southern New Hampshire, architect John S. Jordan Design, and general contractor Hutter Construction, the team transformed a long-vacant downtown parcel into a vibrant mixed-income residential community.

The six-story development features 45 residential units, including 19 one-bedroom and 26 two-bedroom apartments. Designed to support smart-growth principles, the project revitalizes an underutilized site in the heart of downtown Nashua while providing much-needed housing within walking distance of local businesses, services, and public transportation. The development includes an outdoor courtyard, community room, management office, laundry facilities, and elevator access to all floors. Through long-term affordability restrictions, the project will continue to provide housing opportunities for generations to come.

TFMoran was also proud to contribute structural engineering services for the Rockingham County Municipal Complex in Brentwood. This 110,000-square-foot facility was designed by Warrenstreet Architects and constructed by Harvey Construction, with support from project partners including ReVision Energy, SRW Environmental Consulting, Coughlin Environmental Services, and Nobis Group.

Developed to consolidate multiple county departments into a single modern campus, the facility houses the Sheriff’s Department and Emergency Dispatch Headquarters, Department of Community Corrections, County Attorney’s Office, County Commissioners’ Offices, and the Registry of Deeds. The complex also includes a 131-seat multi-purpose auditorium, secure operational spaces, and infrastructure supporting a multi-megawatt solar energy system. TFMoran’s structural design incorporated steel framing, reinforced masonry shear walls, cold-formed metal framing, and special moment frames to support the building’s operational, security, and architectural requirements.

The Plan NH Merit Awards of Excellence recognize projects that demonstrate outstanding planning, design, collaboration, and community impact. The awards celebrate developments that enhance New Hampshire’s built environment through smart growth, livability, environmental stewardship, and innovative partnerships. This past Thursday, June 18th, Civil Department Manager, Nick Golon and Marketing Coordinator, Nicole Arsenualt attended the award night at Arts Alley, in Concord, NH to receive the awards on behalf of the firm.

Founded in 1989, Plan NH is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering excellence in planning, design, and development throughout New Hampshire. Through education, collaboration, and advocacy, the organization works to create vibrant, sustainable communities that balance the needs of people, place, and the environment.

Bedford, N.H.  June 10, 2026 – TFMoran, a leading engineering and surveying company in northern New England since 1968, is pleased to announce that Jay Aube, Director of Environmental Permitting, is stepping into the role of Principal and joining the firm’s ownership group.

Aube has more than 20 years of environmental permitting experience, including five years at TFMoran. His expertise includes wetland delineation, functional assessments, compensatory mitigation and restoration plans, as well as the design and permitting of coastal resiliency and shoreline stabilization projects. His work regularly involves environmental permitting at the federal, state, and local levels, and representing clients before regulatory agencies, boards, and commissions.

“Jay has been instrumental in TFMoran’s mission of promoting responsible development while protecting important natural resources,” said Robert Duval, TFMoran President. “His focus on environmental permitting ensures that projects are approved efficiently and responsibly. At the same time, he is mentoring our junior scientists to instill these values in the next generation of TFMoran professionals.”

Aube has contributed to several high-profile TFMoran projects, including the Granite Woods Commerce Center, a 500,000-square-foot Class A warehouse that required complex environmental permitting and infrastructure planning.

TFMoran Sponsors Bowman Place 5-Year Anniversary Luau

TFMoran Chief Operating Officer, Dylan Cruess, and Marketing Coordinator, Nicole Arsenault, recently attended and sponsored the 5th Anniversary Celebration at Bowman Place Senior Living in Bedford, NH. The milestone event brought together residents, families, staff, and community partners for a festive Hawaiian luau celebrating five successful years of serving local seniors.

The celebration was especially meaningful for us, as our firm provided civil/site engineering, permitting, traffic engineering, and landscape architecture services for the Bowman Place at Olde Bedford development. Working alongside Munson & Associates, EGA Architects, and Eckman Construction, TFMoran helped bring the 95,000-square-foot senior living community to life. The three-story facility includes assisted living and memory care residences, along with numerous amenities designed to support residents’ independence, comfort, and quality of life.

Guests enjoyed an afternoon filled with Hawaiian-inspired food, tropical beverages, fresh fruit, and desserts including key lime pie pudding and toasted coconut cake. A tiki bar overlooking the putting green, tropical music, steel drums, and a live hula dancer helped create an authentic island atmosphere, while residents and their guests captured memories with a tropical-themed photo backdrop.

During the event, Dylan and Nicole were given a tour of the facility and had the opportunity to see firsthand how the community has grown since opening in 2021. Highlights included the dining room, library, salon, social bar, chapel, television lounge, game room, and other amenities available to residents.

It was inspiring to see how Bowman Place has flourished over the past five years. From welcoming its first 3 residents to becoming a thriving assisted living and memory care community with full occupancy and waiting lists, the facility continues to make a positive impact on the lives of local seniors and their families.

Congratulations to the entire Bowman Place team on this remarkable milestone. TFMoran is proud to have been part of the project’s development and looks forward to supporting the community’s continued success for years to come.
