Occupant health and wellness, energy resiliency and electrification are just a few of the areas we’re exploring as we approach the milestone of providing 60 years of engineering design. One thing’s for certain – GHT teams will continue to deliver innovative design that sets the pace for our discipline, in DC and across the globe.
We’re growing and expanding our reach by establishing experts to deliver top-notch design in DC’s hottest markets.
With an average tenure of more than 22 years among our project principals, we’ve encountered a wide array of projects across our region — from corporate headquarters and chiller plants to spec suite build-outs, GSA renovations, high schools, and more. We leverage this extensive experience across 14 different market sectors, providing a proven expert to lead each Practice Area. This means you benefit from our decades of expertise, regardless of your project type.
With roots in Arlington since 1965, we know this area like the back of our hand.
When Goodie H. Taylor started out in a small dimly lit office suite on North Fairfax Drive, he had a vision to deliver energy efficiency expertise coupled with great HVAC design for clients across the region – and a commitment to improved work-life balance. Nearly 60 years later, GHT’s culture stands as a testament to his vision – where revolutionizing productivity and flexible schedules combine to build a true home for our 100+ talented engineers and designers today.
