The Lowe, Willard & Fowler Engineering Company was a College Point, New York City based manufacturer of airplanes founded in December 1915. It was named for founders Edward Lowe Jr., Charles F. Willard, and Robert G. Fowler, and was also considered to be named after the construction it developed, the laminated wood fuselage. "Lowe provided most of the financing, while Fowler attracted Willard. Lowe soon secured total control, renaming the firm L-W-F Engineering, and Fowler and Willard departed in 1916." The company was reorganized as L-W-F Engineering Company in 1917. The company built the Curtiss HS-2L, Martin NBS-1 and Douglas DT-2 under contract. The company was declared bankrupt in 1924.
