History

Founded on October 11, 1954 by the late Kenneth C. Mock and the late Edward J. Roos, and originally located in Lake Worth, Florida, Mock•Roos serves select public and private clients through the rare combination of decades of experience and the retainment of personalized service. The firm's client base, primarily located throughout the state of Florida, extends to both national and international levels. To provide top service to such a diverse client base, Mock•Roos employs specialized teams of professional engineers, professional surveyors and mappers, planners, designers, CADD technicians/drafters, computer programmers, project field representatives and support staff. Corporate operations are headquartered in West Palm Beach, Florida.

In 1985 an expanse of State Road 80 was dedicated as the Kenneth C. Mock Memorial Highway. Stretching from South Bay, Florida to the Town of Palm Beach, it is a lasting testimony to the Mock•Roos' co-founder whose sense of a personal responsibility led to safer travel. As a former resident of Pahokee, an agricultural town linked to the east coast by perilous roads flanked by hazardous canals, K.C. Mock crusaded for safer roadways for his rural neighbors. The Kenneth C. Mock Memorial Highway commemorates the personal commitment and skills of Mr. Mock. Today, the four-lane highway links the eastern Lake Okeechobee area with Palm Beach County urban centers, providing travelers with both scenic and safe roadways. Concern for the health and safety of the public is a Mock•Roos tradition, and a continuous tribute to the firm's original president, who always insisted upon a high standard of excellence.
