Following Perry Coke Smith's retirement in 1968, the firm's name was changed to [[Haines, Lundberg Waehler]] or HLW. International projects allowed the firm to bring their designs outside the United States in the late 1960s and early 1970s, including the Centro Sperimentale Metallurgico, a research center for the development of steel projects was completed on a {{convert|125|acre|km2|adj=on}} site outside Rome and the International Institute Of Tropical Agriculture, a research and housing facility on a {{convert|3000|acre|km2|adj=on}} site in [[Ibadan, Nigeria]]. In order to accommodate growth in its overseas practice, the firm created a new division of operations, HLW International, with its first offices in [[Beirut]] and then in [[Athens]] with projects extending to [[Lebanon]] and [[Saudi Arabia]].
In 1982, the first Midtown Manhattan office of the [[U.S. Trust Corporation]] was restored by the firm to the original 1896 design by [[McKim Mead and White]], while accommodating the requirements of a 1980s office. HLW won awards from the [[New York Landmarks Conservancy]], the [[Building Owners and Managers Association]], and the Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.metrovsa.org/pastawards.htm|title = 凯发k8娱乐-官网}}</ref> In 1983, significant modifications were made for the existing Chemical Bank World Headquarters at [[277 Park Avenue]] in Manhattan. This design included the enclosure of an existing plaza to create Chemcourt, which provided the city with a park-like enclosed space.
Exactly 100 years after the firm's beginning with a commission to design the first telephone building in New York, a new project for NYNEX Corporation was initiated, as was a training center for [[The Travelers Companies|The Travelers]] Insurance Companies in [[Hartford, Connecticut]].
