History . . .
Our organization was begun in 1971 as the Illinois division of a
national contracting company. In 1981, that division was split off
as a separate corporation named Itasca Construction Associates,
Inc. and purchased by the present Owners. All key personnel remained
with the company after the purchase.
In 1982, a branch office of Itasca Construction Associates, Inc.
was opened in Deerfield Beach, Florida to perform construction services
for a national development company in the South Florida market.
In 1983, the Florida office was incorporated as a separate entity.
We moved our offices to Boca Raton in 1990, Other offices of Itasca
Construction Associates are located in Tampa, Atlanta, and Milwaukee,
as well as the Chicago market.
From 1982 until now, we have constructed over 100 buildings and
over 8 million SF in South Florida.
