It is the successor firm to the architecture practice formed in Boston in 1874 by American architect Henry Hobson Richardson. Following Richardson's death in 1886, the firm existed as Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge through 1915, then became Coolidge and Shattuck from 1915 through 1924, Coolidge Shepley Bulfinch and Abbott from 1924 through 1952, and Shepley Bulfinch Richardson and Abbott from 1952. In 2009 Shepley Bulfinch acquired merzproject, a small design studio located in Phoenix, Arizona, that is now the firm's Phoenix office.
