Ira A. Levy, 68, an AECOM executive vice president who helped engineer giant global infrastructure projects in a 44-year career, died June 15 in New York City after a fight with cancer. Design giant Gensler and architecture associations also lost a luminary with the May 27 death of Walter A. Hunt at age 74. No cause of death was disclosed.
Levy began his career with engineer Frederick R. Harris, eventually becoming president of its successor DMJM Harris and gaining his current role when AECOM bought the firm in 2010.
