L. Bruce & Company Firm Profile
In 1986, Jeffrey Bruce founded Jeffrey L. Bruce &
Company (JBC). From the start of the firm’s
operations, Mr. Bruce has insisted on maintaining
direct involvement with both clients and project team
members. While directing the firm’s overall growth
and development, he has maintained active
involvement in every area of service offered by the
firm. JBC’s initial projects during the 1980’s earned
the firm a solid reputation in comprehensive master
planning, site design, landscape architecture,
recreation planning, and urban design. Projects
included the awarding winning landscape
development of the Kansas City International Airport

athletic field and sports turf for many major sports
facilities. Many of the JBC projects have been
recognized for design excellence. These include the
Kearney Artist Studio for Hallmark Cards Inc., the

Zoo, the Overland Park Arboretum, and the Iowa
World War II Memorial located on the grounds of the
Iowa State Capitol in Des Moines.
