Idaho’s communities are growing and changing. The buildings that support them matter. They must be safe, strong, and built to last. Hospitals, schools, city buildings, and historic places all play an important role in daily life and long-term community well-being. Reaveley Engineers’ Idaho office in Boise is part of that community. With strong local roots and decades of experience providing structural engineering services in Idaho, our team serves communities across the state by delivering thoughtful engineering, sound judgment, and long-term value to the places where we live and work.
Reaveley Engineers opened its Idaho office in November 2025, but our work in Idaho goes back to the early 70’s. These projects include historic restoration, adaptive reuse, new hospital facilities, higher education buildings, and confidential work for public and private agencies. Our long history in Idaho allows us to understand local conditions, building types, and community needs. Having a local Boise office allows us to work closely with clients while also drawing on firmwide experience from projects across the Intermountain West.
The Idaho office is made up of experienced engineers and CAD professionals who care deeply about their work and the communities they serve. Most of the team grew up in Idaho or nearby areas, which creates a strong personal connection to the places they support.

The Idaho office supports structural engineering projects that strengthen communities and serve people throughout the state. In downtown Boise, Reaveley Engineers is supporting the expansion of St. Luke’s Boise Medical Center. This multi-phase healthcare project helps meet the region's growing needs and focuses on safety, durability, and flexibility for future use.
In Pocatello, the City plans to relocate City Hall to the Historic 1916 Federal Building at 150 South Arthur Avenue. The building's original function was the city’s post office and federal building. The City purchased the structure in 2021 for adaptive reuse. The updated building will house city offices, council chambers, and public spaces. This project supports historic preservation while allowing the building to serve modern civic needs.
While rooted in Idaho communities, the Boise office draws on firmwide structural engineering expertise. This includes experience in healthcare facilities, K12, higher education, medical research/life science, seismic evaluation, historic preservation, and complex institutional buildings. Reaveley Engineers’ Idaho office is committed to serving the communities we call home. Through strong partnerships, careful engineering, and long-term thinking, we help create buildings that support Idaho today and for generations to come.
Reaveley Engineers is located at Airport Plaza, 3295 West Elder Street, Suite 110, Boise, Idaho 83705. The office phone number is 208.297.5875.
