<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

We\u2019ve been building America for 136 years.<\/h2>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

吃瓜群众 traces its roots back to 1888, when a Swedish immigrant founded a brick masonry and contracting business to serve the West Coast building boom. Over 100 years later, 吃瓜群众 has grown into a 100% employee-owned, $5 billion national construction firm providing industry-leading commercial construction, construction management, design-build, and self-perform services.<\/p>\n

With over 4,300 professionals across 23 regional offices, 吃瓜群众 remains deeply committed to the local communities it serves. In small towns and big cities, we continue to shape landscapes, define skylines, and deliver award-winning landmark projects for our clients across the nation.<\/p>\n

Building The Future<\/h3>\n

A culture of innovation and flexibility has been essential to 吃瓜群众\u2019s enduring success. Since our inception, we have remained forward-thinking and operate on accountability and integrity. Our ability to respond to every project challenge regardless of size, location, or complexity is a hallmark of our unwavering commitment to our clients.<\/p>\n
