Strengthen and Grow Your Network In Shive-Hattery’s Growing Kansas City Studio.

Some of our best and brightest — with work experience in our Cedar Rapids and Chicago studios — are now heading up our Kansas City location.

Because this office is just getting its start, we get to chart our own path and build something special from the ground up. Our team is putting its entrepreneurial mindset to work to build a multidisciplinary firm focused on relationships and credibility. Every hire we make helps shape the culture of our Kansas City studio.

Shive-Hattery Kansas City Architecture and Engineering Firm

Top 5 Reasons We Love Our Kansas City Studio

  • We are located in the Crossroads Arts District, a historic neighborhood with a thriving arts scene and monthly First Friday Art Walks.
  • Kansas City’s new streetcar system has a stop a few blocks from the office, providing easy access to the River Market neighborhood, Union Station and Country Club Plaza.
  • Our office’s large windows flood the space with natural light and have views of some of Kansas City’s iconic architecture, including the Kauffman Center for Performing Arts and the Western Auto Building.
  • We are within walking distance of several of Kansas City’s best coffee shops and restaurants – whether that’s coffee at Mildred’s, lunch at Lulu’s Thai Noodle Shop, or an after-work drink at Swordfish Tom’s.
  • Kansas City is home to the World Champion Kansas City Chiefs, and our office is just blocks from the official parade route for future Super Bowl parades (fingers crossed!).
