Abraham Epstein

Abraham Epstein

Abraham Epstein was the founder of Epstein Global, an architecture company based in Chicago.

On July 15, 1921 Epstein founded Epstein Global following his immigration and subsequent graduation from the University of Illinois.

Working out of a small one-story office building at 2011 Pershing Road on the west side of Chicago, A. Epstein – Structural Engineer provided engineering solutions for a modest mix of industrial and commercial clients throughout Chicago. These projects included buildings for City Furniture, J.S. Hoffman, Independent Casing Company and the Live Stock National Bank of Chicago.

Positive reviews from his client on the Central Manufacturing District in Chicago enabled A. Epstein to be awarded his first contract outside of Chicago for the Central Manufacturing District of Los Angeles. This success was followed by another out of town assignment for the United State Cold Storage Corporation in Kansas City, Missouri.

Prospects for the future were looking very bright. Unfortunately, when the roaring 20s came to a screeching halt with the collapse of the US Stock Market in October of 1929 A. Epstein, like most small businesses in the United States, faced an uncertain future.

Epstein is now one of the largest and oldest architecture, interiors, engineering and construction firms in the world
