About Manhattan Construction
Manhattan Construction is part of a privately held construction group with five generations of Rooney family ownership. Manhattan Construction Company was founded in 1896 and remains the group’s flagship building business. Its organisation provides construction services in the United States and selected international markets, with related companies addressing roads, bridges, pipelines, concrete and other specialty works.
Markets and Experience
Its building portfolio includes sports venues, healthcare facilities, airports, education and public buildings. Published examples include AT&T Stadium, NASA’s Exploration Sciences Building and Oklahoma State University’s business building. The wider group also delivers civil infrastructure and specialty construction, bringing several different field disciplines within the same organisational family.
Services and Capabilities
Manhattan’s services include preconstruction, construction management, general building, design-build, programme management and self-performed work. Technical capabilities include BIM and virtual construction, document and constructability reviews, and construction consulting. Related group companies provide concrete, bridge and road works, pipeline repairs and integrity services, and specialist building packages.
Delivery and Collaboration
The company’s stated values include safety, excellence, integrity, respect and a client-driven culture. It describes ethical conduct, training and long-term relationships as part of its approach to business. Manhattan’s profile is therefore that of an established building contractor supported by a wider construction group. Owners can draw on different delivery models and technical resources for projects with complex building requirements, while the related businesses provide capabilities in civil and specialty scopes where those are relevant to the assignment.
