Difference between revisions of "Leo A. Daly Company, Architects"

Revision as of 14:11, 15 September 2016

The Leo A. Daly Company was incorporated in 1948 with partners Leo A. Daly, Leo A. Daly, Jr., and William T. Daly. The two sons had become partners in 1943.[17] William's career was spent in the St. Louis office.[13:7][19] The company claims its origination in 1915, when Daly, Sr., began his architectural career. Prior to that time, and for a period thereafter, Daly worked for others, including John Latenser. He formally established his own practice in 1922.[14] The first credited design work, however, was St. Patrick’s Church, North Platte, Nebraska, in 1916. The present company is a continuous extension of the practice established by the elder Daly.

By the time of Daly, Sr.’s, death in 1952, the company, in addition to its Omaha home office, had established offices in St. Louis, Missouri and Seattle, Washington, and had 50 employees.[7] The firm continued to expand under Daly, Jr.’s leadership from the 1950s until his death in 1981, and then under the leadership of Leo Anthony Daly III, into the twenty-first century. The firm has received dozens of achievement awards, citations and honors during the intervening 60-plus years, including worldwide recognition.

By 2010 the Daly Company employed over 1,000 design and engineering professionals in over 30 offices around the world. The company was listed as the ninth largest architecture and engineering firm in the United States, according to Building Design and Construction magazine’s 34th Annual “Giants 300 Report.” According to the company’s website, the firm has won over 500 design awards.[10]
