Cultural/Civic
Centers
Libraries, museums and performing arts venues are the aspirational vision and values of their local community. They are also a significant investment to own and operate. Syska Hennessy Group provides engineering consulting, design and commissioning expertise for these complex world-class facilities with high-performing, highest-quality and sustainable operations, creating significant overhead cost savings for our clients. Our first museum commission in the 1930s, The Frick Collection, was the first fully air-conditioned museum in the world.
When the Lawrence Public Library in Lawrence, Kansas, launched its renovation and expansion, Syska teamed with Gould Evans to create a welcoming high-performance façade that delivers natural light for patrons and energy savings for the owners. Through an iterative energy and daylight modeling process, we reduced energy consumption by 50 percent in library space that expanded by 50 percent, meeting the Architecture 2030 Challenge for carbon neutrality on renovation projects.
Designing Smarter Terminals
Syska addresses all building systems: MEP and fire protection, telecommunications, security, audiovisual, vertical transportation systems, architectural lighting and the building management controls that operate and optimize aviation facilities. Integrated building management controls can improve systems performance and provide operational savings while assuring thermal comfort.
Clients & Projects
Our goal remains unchanged, we continue to enhance our engineering practice while placing a strong emphasis on decarbonization. Through thoughtful engagement with our clients, we craft innovative designs across a broad range of markets to enhance the built environment. Take a look.

Delivering Sustainability Energy Efficiencies Solutions
With increasingly stringent mandates by local municipalities to reduce carbon emissions, airport authorities rely on Syska’s high-performance expertise and analytics tools to meet their sustainability goals. A recent project, the Terminal 2 West expansion at San Diego International Airi:>ort, became the first-ever certified LEED Platinum. Computational fluid dynamics (CFO) for predictive airflow performance and solar and energy models defined scenarios that the design team successfully deployed.
Tenured Client Partnerships
While Syska is at the leading edge of engineering innovation, our fundamental mission to solve our clients’ challenges has remained consistent. We offer a complete range of delivery methods, varying from traditional design-bid-build, design-build, P3 and Construction Manager at Risk.
