GZA announced today the opening of its new Long Island office in Melville. Located at 324 South Service Road, the office will be led by Cassandra Wetzel, a GZA Principal who also leads GZA’s New York City (Manhattan) office.

GZA President and Chief Executive Officer Patrick Sheehan said, “While we have been executing projects on Long Island for many years, we are excited to add a closer local presence for our current and prospective clients through our new Melville office. Cassandra and GZA team members in Melville will also be able to leverage the expertise and capabilities of GZA specialists throughout the country to deliver clients innovative solutions to complex challenges.”
