| | Welcome to Construction Company.comCommemorating
American Construction CompaniesConstruction Company.com is dedicated to
recognizing the epic accomplishments of American general contractors, construction
managers and construction companies. No type of business has better demonstrated
the ideals of adventure, patriotism, daring and creativity than the American construction
company. Construction companies have connected our nation's coasts, harnessed
the power of mighty rivers, tunneled beneath great cities and touched the skies
overhead. Today,
you can't enter a building, drive a road, ride a train or subway or even use a
manufactured product without experiencing the result of some construction company's
efforts. These visionaries have literally paved the way for America's economy
and way of life. Every day, contractors all across the country are breaking ground
on new structures, expanding and improving roads and bridges and improving our
nation's commercial and transportation infrastructure - extending the veins and
arteries of commerce, which carry our economy's lifeblood.
Construction
companies span the United States. Cities like New York, Atlanta, Georgia, Dallas
/ Fort Worth, Texas and Los Angeles all serve as home for the country's top construction
companies. The work of construction companies is almost always unheralded,
even taken for granted. Occasionally, however, a construction project is so monumental
in its scope or impact on our society that it captures the world's attention.
A selection of those historic construction
projects is showcased on this site. - The Transcontinental
Railroad, where construction companies battled all types of hazards and challenges
to build a rail system that would tame the Wild West.
- The Empire
State Building, a dream that started as a petty rivalry between two business
magnates and ended up as one of the most famous buildings in the world.
- Historic
construction projects take place not just in the air or at ground level but under
the earth's surface as well; New
York City's Subway System was built after New York was already the second
largest city in the world, and yet this amazing construction project enabled all
of the city's boroughs to thrive and grow beyond the wildest expectations.
- Can
you imagine a multi-billion dollar industry resulting from a father's bad experience
while taking his daughters to an amusement park? It can happen - if the father
is Walt Disney. Learn more about how Disneyland and Disney World revitalized a
dying amusement park industry and created new innovations in construction company
technology during the Disneyland
and Disney World construction projects.
- New technologies drive new
projects from innovative construction companies. For example, the new Airbus aircraft
will change the face of the air cargo industry - but no cargo center in the United
States was big enough to handle this jumbo jet . . . until one company built a
new Air
Cargocentre and LogisticsCentres at DFW Airport in Dallas / Fort Worth, Texas.
- Other historic construction projects - the Interstate
Highway System and the Hoover
Dam - are featured here as well.
These famous projects show the
ingenuity, dedication and courage demonstrated by the construction companies and
workers who took them from vision to reality. The hardships and dangers the workers
faced, the challenges they overcame and the new technologies they developed in
the course of completing these projects provide a remarkable testimonial to the
American construction company and its honorable place in our society's development. Modern
construction companies face different problems then those overcome by their predecessors,
but today's challenges require no less creativity. The volatile nature of our
economy, the dynamic nature of dealing in a technologically advanced global marketplace,
the pressures of greater competition and increased government intervention - all
of these factors force modern construction companies to respond with creativity,
expertise and courage of their own.
While there are hundreds of successful
construction companies around the United States, a select few have been recognized
by industry organizations and publications for their expertise, professionalism
and leadership. We have showcased these premier companies in our Construction
Company Directory. In this section you can browse companies in the construction
