History

Severud was founded in the year 1928 by Fred Severud, a Norwegian-born American structural engineer and member of the National Academy of Engineering. Originally the firm was called Severud-Elstad-Krueger Associates, then renamed Severud-Perrone-Sturm-Bandel, and finally shortened to Severud Associates.[3][4]

These include Place Ville Marie (1962), Arecibo Observatory (1963), the St. Louis Gateway Arch (1965), Madison Square Garden (1968), IDS Center (1973), and AXA Center (1985). Recently, Severud has been the structural engineer for the National Museum of the American Indian,[5] Thomson Reuters Building (2001), the Bank of America Tower at One Bryant Park (2009), Eventi (2010),[6][7] the Claire Tow Theater at Lincoln Center (2012).[8], One Vanderbilt, and the MSG Sphere at The Venetian in Las Vegas.
