So Why D.C. Anyways?

Although GGA closed operations at our D.C. branch at the end of 2024, our history there is still a big part of who we are. For those interested in how GGA came to service the Mid-Atlantic region… it really was pretty simple. In 1997, GGA was approached by one of it’s local New England customers to bid a high profile project for them in Washington, D.C., the Italian Embassy. The project was of a size and scope well within our means that could also handle the burden of cost to send some of our own manpower to the area to assist the local crews we were able to put together. The price was right, the job went very well and our future there was underway.

We had a good run of 25+ years in the market. We had a full team of management personnel in our Capitol Heights, MD office with their own full time labor force to ensure that the work we did in that market was fully in our control. With the DC market being as dynamic as it was, on any given year the share of work in that region accounted for a substantial amount of the yearly volume GGA performed. D.C. was no part time endeavor for GGA, and we look back on those years with pride!
