Jensen, Sr.  The firm is registered with the Chicago Historical Society. From the 1930's through the 1950's the firm focused on and produced mainly commercial architecture of which office and retail buildings were the majority.  Literally hundreds of Jewel and Jewel/Osco combination stores were built in and around Chicago by Jensen & Jensen during the last 4 decades, a lasting relationship and track record of which we are very proud. We continue to specialize in commercial and residential Architecture and Engineering today including store buildings, shopping centers, office buildings as well as master planning.  Over the last thirty years we have produced a wide variety of projects and building types ranging from small scale residential and institutional, to religious and assembly, to large scale mixed-use and multi-story office and retail projects. Our typical client base consists of a wide variety of local and national store chains and both private and corporate developers, property owners, and managers.  At Jensen & Jensen we enjoy growing with our clients and have done so through a professional commitment to on-time, within budget project completion.
