The List: Architecture list lacks familiar name

BizWest’s latest list of the largest architecture firms in the Boulder Valley and Northern Colorado is missing a familiar name: OZ Architecture closed its Boulder office last year during the COVID-19 pandemic, consolidating to Denver.

OZ had long maintained a Boulder office, and one of its founders contributed to the design of the iconic Pearl Street Mall. But the company no longer operates at 2206 Pearl St., bringing to an end its position as one of the region’s largest architecture firms.

The updated list is available at BizWest’s new DataBank site, an online presentation of the publication’s lists and directories. Visitors can search specific directories, such as the Book of Lists, Blueprints, BizWest’s medical directories and Biz Local, a new directory, sponsored by Gaia, of locally owned businesses.
