Raleigh’s cityscape is changing under the direction of Priscilla Tyree Williams, the City’s Construction Projects Administrator. She manages the design and construction of vertical projects across the city, including hiring design teams and overseeing post-construction work. Her responsibilities do not cover the Convention Center Complex, Raleigh Parks, or Raleigh Water projects. Williams’ work was featured in Raleigh’s "This is What I Do" video series, according to the City of Raleigh.
Throughout the video on the city’s website, Williams explains her role, which involves working with end users to translate their plans into completed structures. The video shows the process from initial designs to finished 3D structures, highlighting the work of her team on city construction projects.
The episode features Priscilla discussing her professional responsibilities, which begin with project planning and continue through the completion of a building. She remains involved for a full year after construction to ensure the structure meets the city’s requirements before long-term maintenance is handed over to the City’s Facilities and Operations division.
