April 16, 2026

Wick Fisher White proudly celebrated its 125th anniversary with a special evening event held at Carpenters’ Hall, one of Philadelphia’s most historic landmarks. More than 125 guests including staff, industry partners, clients, and colleagues, gathered to mark this milestone in the firm’s long-standing history.

Held on an unseasonably warm spring evening, the celebration offered guests the opportunity to enjoy both the interior of Carpenters’ Hall and its outdoor patio. The relaxed atmosphere set the tone for a night filled with connection, conversation, and reflection.  A lot of laughter was heard throughout the space as attendees enjoyed cocktails, light bites, and passed hors d’oeuvres.

“We are incredibly proud of our legacy and our longstanding presence in the Philadelphia region and beyond. It was truly meaningful to celebrate this milestone alongside our friends, clients, and colleagues. Seeing such a strong turnout was a powerful reminder of the relationships we’ve built over the years, and why we do what we do.” Said Principal Matt Cofone.

Guests also had the unique opportunity to explore Carpenters’ Hall, located within Independence National Historical Park. As the official birthplace of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and a key meeting place for colonial delegates during the early days of the American Revolution, the venue provided a meaningful and fitting backdrop for the evening. The historic setting underscored the theme of legacy—highlighting Wick Fisher White’s own deep roots in Philadelphia, a city recognized as America’s birthplace.

Founded in 1901, Wick Fisher White has been part of the region’s-built environment for over a century, now standing at half the age of the United States itself. Central to that legacy is the strength of relationships built over time, both longstanding partnerships and new connections alike. These relationships remain at the core of Wick Fisher White’s mission, grounded in trust and a shared commitment to advancing client goals.

Festive touches throughout the event, including custom 125th anniversary fun fact napkins and branded balloons, added to the celebratory atmosphere and reinforcing the significance of the milestone.

As Wick Fisher White looks ahead, the firm remains focused on delivering reliable, high-quality engineering solutions while strengthening the relationships that have supported its success for generations.
