mma to Support Arlington’s 150th Anniversary Sculpture Project

We’re excited to share that mma has been selected to support the City of Arlington’s 150th Anniversary public art installation, “Touched by Time.”

Approved by City Council in April, the project will bring a signature iconic sculpture to Founders Plaza — designed as a centerpiece for Arlington’s sesquicentennial celebration and a reflection of the city’s past, present, and future.

This project is especially meaningful to the mma team as our headquarters — and much of our work — are rooted in Arlington.

“We’ve spent decades helping shape places across Arlington and North Texas. This project is really about giving back to the community that’s shaped who we are and being part of something that will represent Arlington for years to come,” said Jacob Sumpter. “And to make it even more special: the installation site at Founders Plaza is a place we helped create, making this a true full-circle moment for our team.”

mma’s role in the sculpture project includes the development and oversight of construction documents that will guide installation of the sculpture and surrounding areas of Founders Plaza. This means working closely with the artist to help turn the artistic vision into a fully realized space.

Installation is planned for late 2026 as part of Arlington’s 150th anniversary celebration. We’re proud to play a role in delivering a unique project that will become a lasting part of this community’s story.

mma Team Member Spotlight: Kaleb Wade, Graduate Engineer II

At mma, we’re proud to have team members who are passionate about building stronger communities, and Kaleb Wade is a great example.

Kaleb was drawn to civil engineering by a desire to make a tangible difference in the places where people live and work. He joined mma as an intern in October 2018 (becoming full-time in January 2023) and was drawn to the opportunity to work across a variety of land development projects while being supported by leaders who are invested in employee growth and development. Kaleb takes pride in every project and especially enjoys seeing designs become reality and collaborating with others to solve complex challenges.

“I love the excitement of seeing my designs get built and transition from paper to the real world.”

He also deeply appreciates the impact he’s able to have on his community by working on meaningful projects that contribute to local economies and improve the quality of life for many people. Beyond his mma role, Kaleb serves as a Planning and Zoning Commissioner and a committee member with the Real Estate Council of Greater Fort Worth. Through both experiences, Kaleb has developed a unique perspective on how thoughtful planning and infrastructure can help shape the future of the DFW region.

“Each of these roles directly complements the other, allowing me to approach land development holistically and ensure our communities are built thoughtfully.”

Looking ahead, Kaleb expects significant advancements in the tools, technology, and precision used in civil engineering. He’s particularly interested in how community planning and infrastructure design will evolve to support emerging transit trends including air mobility, dedicated ride-share zones, and autonomous vehicles.

Life Outside mma
When he’s not working, Kaleb enjoys outdoor activities including golf, cycling, running, fishing and boating. He also loves spending time with his family and two dachshunds, Pim and Rho – even taking the dogs to the AKC Dachshund Field Trials, with Pim winning Field Champion.

mma is grateful for Kaleb’s dedication to engineering, community service, and building places that improve communities now and well into the future.
