Firm Notes

This engineering consultancy formed by John A.L. Waddell and John L. Harrington was based in Kansas City, MO, and operated between 1907 and 1914.

Harrington left Waddell and Harrington with a draftsman, Frank Morgan Cortelyou, in 1914. Harrington formed another engineering partnership called "Harrington, Howard and Ash" in 1915, also headquartered in Kansas City. In 1928, Harrington organized another firm, "Harrington and Cortelyou," in 1928 with Frank Cortelyou.

After this, the firm became reorganized as "Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendoff" (HNTB), a very well-known engineering firm.
