"As Senior Pastor of historic Spruce Street Baptist Church, I'm hippopotamus happy, elephant elated, giraffe glad and pea-cock proud to write a letter to sing the praises of HCO, Architect firm. It isn't often that I have the opportunity to do something that has an absolutely zero degree of difficulty. HCO, is a first-class firm ... etching out the best possible design that will make the community more desirable. ... HCO took our 202 HUD project in an underdeveloped, underserved community and made the entire community come back to life with new possibilities. ... I must say that it was a pleasure working with HCO they made our staff as well as community feel empowered. In my humble opinion HCO, Architect firm is a special firm that reaches beyond its grasp to always finish a job and leave behind shoes which are impossible to fill."

"On behalf of BAA Indianapolis LLC, I would like to relate to you the pleasure our organization had with being associated with HCO, Inc. during the design phase of our multi-million dollar Sound Insulation Program at Indianapolis International Airport.

"HCO Inc. made notes of the vision, went to their office, and in a short period of time completed a design, which was very similar to the original vision that God had given me. It was as though HCO was somehow looking into the vision as I was receiving it from God. If you are planning any kind of construction, I highly recommend HCO Architects. ... it takes a person of special quality to appease a Pastor like me."

I have learned that the best recommendation a man can get is when a person says, 'we will use you again.' "

Steven Parks
Business Manager
|
"We were quite pleased that Henry Onochie, himself, took personal interest in the design of our project. ... he was much more dedicated to matching the facility's functions to our needs than putting his architectural talents on display. A visit to a facility HCO, Inc. worked on prior to ours revealed that our case is not unique. We marveled more at the functionality of the structure for the needs of this congregation, than we did at the beauty of the edifice. I would, without hesitation, recommend HCO, Inc. as a vendor to any church or business for excellent architectural services."
|
|
Dr. Phillip L. Shobe
Pastor
|
"Mr. Onochie was tasked to develop plans and present drawings for a Future Church and Family Life Center for the St. John's Missionary Baptist Church.

I am proud to say a favorable word in his behalf and look forward to working with him in the very near future."

"... thanks to you and your staff for the professionalism and dedication you exemplified in the first phase of our bulding process ... HCO, Inc. proved to be knowledgeable and competent in their positions. They were open to suggestions and ideas, and provided us with information when we were not quite sure about the "architectural terminology". God has given HCO, Inc. the gift to bring visions of others to reality and we at Second Baptist are truly thankful to Him for that. Everyone is very pleased with the finished product of this phase and excited about Phase II."
