Weston & Sampson relocating corporate headquarters to 55 Walkers Brook Dr., Reading, Mass.

Reading, MA Weston & Sampson is relocating their corporate headquarters to 55 Walkers Brook Dr. 

Established in 1899 by Robert Spurr Weston, the firm maintained a single office on High St. in downtown Boston until 1983 when it relocated to Wakefield. In 1989, Weston & Sampson again moved its corporate headquarters to Centennial Park in Peabody. At that time, the firm provided environmental engineering services with 100 employees.

Nearly 30 years later, the firm’s services, regions, and markets have grown. Between 2016 and 2017, Weston & Sampson saw a 20% increase in both gross revenue and employee count. Today, there are 600 professionals located at offices in Mass., Conn., Fla., N.H., N.Y., S.C., and Vt.

 While Weston & Sampson enjoyed first-class office space, infrastructure, and amenities for the past three decades, it has outgrown the space. The new location provides space for 200 employees with room for growth and features modern architecture, furnishings, and amenities. Weston & Sampson anticipates the move in the first quarter of 2019.
