NEW YORK — Knight E/A, Inc. will rebrand to WSP on July 6.
The firm, which joined WSP in July of 2021, provides full-service engineering, planning, architecture and program management services to clients in the Chicago area and throughout the greater Midwest.
The addition of Knight E/A bolstered WSP’s team in the Central Region, strengthening the firm’s capabilities in transportation and civic buildings as well as in civil, traffic, structural and freight railroad design. The firms have a history of close collaboration on projects, including the Illinois Tollway GEC, Landmark Development’s ONE Central, the Chicago Department of Transportation Wells/Wentworth Connector and the Illinois Department of Transportation CREATE program.
“The addition of Knight E/A last year has allowed us to bring a stronger, broader offering of services to our clients throughout the Central Region, helping us deliver on our promise to bring the best of WSP to the Midwest,” said Rebecca Nolan, Central Region president for WSP USA. “We’re excited to be fully united under the WSP brand, with greater ease of collaboration amongst our teams in service of our clients.”
“As part of WSP, our employees have already seen great opportunities to grow within the larger organization and we are excited about our abilities to bring expanded expertise to our clients,” said Kevin Lentz, president of Knight E/A. “As WSP, we’ll provide our clients with the same commitment to innovation and client care they have previously relied on, but with more skills, resources and expertise to meet their growing needs.”
