Expanding Expertise to Philadelphia

In response to the growing demand for specialized engineering expertise in the Mid-Atlantic, Walter P Moore has expanded into Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This new presence enhances the firm’s ability to deliver integrated, solutions-driven services that address the region’s complex building and infrastructure challenges.

“Opening an office in Philadelphia aligns with our long-term strategy to expand where our expertise can make a meaningful impact. We are excited to bring together our diagnostics and structural capabilities under strong local leadership and to contribute in ways that honor the city’s architectural heritage while shaping its future.”

Jason Coleman, PE, SE, FICRI, joins as Managing Director of Diagnostics and is a national authority in façade rehabilitation, concrete repair, and structural assessment. Coleman’s work—spanning historic masonry to high-rise concrete—closely aligns with the city’s architectural character and increasing need for restoration solutions. He is joined by Matt DeSimone, whose background in structural repair and failure investigations further strengthens the firm’s ability to support clients across the region.

Gregg Taylor, PE, SE, has been promoted to Managing Director of the Structures Group. A seasoned leader with a strong record on nationally significant projects, Taylor brings deep technical expertise in complex building systems, with a portfolio that includes major aviation facilities—such as JFK Terminal One and the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport—as well as advanced manufacturing projects, with multiple semiconductor facilities nationwide for internationally recognized clients.

Walter P Moore specializes in a diverse range of services, including structural engineering, diagnostics, secure design, enclosure engineering, construction engineering, civil engineering, parking, water resources, and traffic engineering.
