Overview
1956
Year Founded
The company was established in this year, marking its origins as a local builder in Minnesota.
It operates across the U.S. from regional hubs, blending in-house construction with full-cycle real estate development.
Known for financial strength, it manages both public and private capital, delivering build-to-suit and investor-led projects.
Their portfolio features high-complexity work: hospitals, data centers, labs, warehouse plants, affordable housing, civic and cultural buildings.
They bring technical depth to mission-critical sectors like healthcare and high-tech, with drag-and-drop VDC, lean scheduling, safety and engineered-systems teams.
Their development arm scouts parcels in top metro areas—Minneapolis-St Paul, Dallas-Fort Worth, Raleigh-Durham, Austin, Des Moines and Omaha.
Typical projects include multi-family apartments, combined heat-and-power energy systems, university unions and community banks.
They also revive heritage structures, deliver arts venues, tribal facilities and complex industrial builds—with unusual breadth.
Their roots as a family-run, craft-oriented firm inform a collaborative, partner-first approach seen in long-standing client relationships.
A standout fact: McGough self-performs many trades and uses proprietary ‘Centers of Excellence’ teams to drive efficiency, innovation and quality.
