"At RF Walsh Collaborative Partners, we approach each project as a partnership and we have a dedicated and talented group of professionals who understand that the best results are achieved by working collaboratively and creatively with clients," said Jack Hobbs, president and CEO of RF Walsh Collaborative Partners. "We put strategic insight and planning to work early in the process to add value, and we think our new name reflects our commitment to the client partnership and vision in each building project."

Most recently, RF Walsh Collaborative Partners celebrated the completion and opening of two major medical projects bringing improved patient care and cutting edge medical technology to the Boston area - the William F. Connell Emergency Department at St. Elizabeth's Medical Center in Allston and Mass General's Ambulatory Care and Cancer Center in Danvers.

"My experience working with people from the company is that they operate as a group of collaborative partners, so RF Walsh Collaborative Partners is a fitting name," said John Messervy, director of capital and facility planning for Partners HealthCare System Inc., who worked with the firm on the Ambulatory Care and Cancer Center project in Danvers.

To celebrate the new name and the firm's recent growth, RF Walsh Collaborative Partners hosted an Open House at its offices overlooking Fort Point Channel and Boston Harbor. The event, which featured live entertainment and food, was attended by Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino, Boston Redevelopment Authority Director John Palmieri as well as a variety of healthcare, education, life sciences and real estate industry leaders. American Idol Vocalist John Stevens provided the musical entertainment.
