The Landmark Creative Group Platform
Different disciplines. One integrated development perspective.
Landmark Creative Group is the integrated platform connecting experienced leadership across capital strategy, development, entitlement, construction management, owner representation, and execution.

National commercial construction platform
National Construction Experience
A nationally scaled commercial construction platform with 30+ states of licensure.
Scott Burdette's platform, Strategic Development Partners LLC, represents one of the core proof pillars of Landmark Creative Group — a documented national commercial construction capability spanning retail, industrial, R&D, advanced manufacturing, hospitality, entertainment, active living, and care sectors.
SDP's documented project experience spans more than 20 million square feet across a national footprint, with general contractor licensing in 30+ states enabling engagement with nationally scaled clients and multi-site programs.
This is not a regional general contractor. This is a national-scale owner-side construction platform with sector depth across industrial and R&D projects — including documented work on Rivian Automotive, Redwood EV Recycling, Nuro Robotics, Solarlink, and Multimatic R&D facilities.
Senior Living & Active Adult
Development leadership in senior living — from site strategy through entitlement and execution.
Senior living development is technically complex, politically sensitive, and operationally demanding. The combination of entitlement risk, care-operator programming, specialized regulatory requirements, and operational readiness creates a development environment that rewards deep, sector-specific experience.
Mark Orshoski brings documented senior living and active adult development experience across Arizona and the Southwest — including Carefree senior living communities and Elegance Senior Living projects — complemented by SDP's documented experience in active living, retirement, and care facility construction across multiple markets.
Landmark Creative Group approaches senior living development with the depth of teams that have navigated entitlement, design coordination, operator integration, and operational readiness on real projects.

Our Approach
Ready to operate — not simply ready to occupy.
The goal of every project engagement is a building, community, or facility that is genuinely ready to operate — not a certificate of occupancy and a handshake.
We approach development from the owner’s side of the table at every phase. That means early decisions are made with full visibility into schedule, budget, entitlement risk, construction complexity, and operational requirements — before those decisions become expensive.
View Our ApproachStrategy
Opportunity through feasibility — early risk visibility, buildable program, financeable assumptions.
Development
Entitlement, planning, design coordination — aligned to budget, schedule, and operational intent.
Build
Disciplined construction management and owner representation through substantial completion.
Closeout
Commissioning, operational readiness, and handoff — from permit to opening.
