Los Angeles
Founded in 1974, our Los Angeles office is one of Syska Hennessy Group’s most established and robust locations, home to professionals who specialize in multiple disciplines. Strategically positioned at the intersection of innovation, entertainment, and civic development, we serve as a key hub for engineering excellence on the West Coast—partnering seamlessly with our teams in San Diego, San Francisco, and beyond. From next-gen airports, critical facilities, and healthcare campuses to civic landmarks, mixed-use megadevelopments, and cultural institutions, we engineer environments that power one of the most dynamic metropolitan areas in the world.
Clients & Projects
Our portfolio in Greater Los Angeles includes some of the region’s most notable projects. Several of these—such as the Long Beach Civic Center, LAX Terminals 7 & 8 Redevelopment, and UCLA Marion Anderson Hall—have received ENR California’s Best Project awards for their innovation and impact. We bring decades of experience navigating LA’s complex entitlement processes, seismic and sustainability codes, and evolving building technologies. Our team is especially active in the region’s core sectors, including aviation, commercial real estate, higher education, healthcare, government, media, and technology. Whether we’re designing a major terminal at LAX or supporting office tenant improvements for CBRE, we offer the technical expertise and local insight to deliver high-performance, future-ready spaces.

Culture
Los Angeles is more than a backdrop—it’s a source of inspiration. Our team reflects the city’s vibrant mix of cultures, creativity, and ambition. While we embrace LA’s signature sunshine and laid-back attitude, we’re deeply committed to the communities we serve. Reflecting this commitment is our support for a number of philanthropic efforts, including Making Strides Against Breast Cancer with the American Cancer Society, Homes 4 Families to build affordable housing, and blanket-making drives to benefit animals at the LA Animal Shelter.
