INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Shook Construction announces a year-long celebration of its 100-year anniversary, highlighting a century of growth, innovation and commitment to its communities.
With special events and unique community initiatives, Shook will celebrate its rich history of building communities as it charts a bright course for its next 100 years.
This milestone anniversary not only provides an opportunity to reflect on the company’s success over the past century but also allows Shook to look to the future with the same dedication to its team members, clients and industry partners — all of whom are essential to the company’s success.
Charles H. Shook founded Shook Construction in 1926 in Dayton, Ohio. After receiving a degree in civil engineering and serving in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Shook began working for an architectural firm in Dayton. When he was tasked to find a contractor for a project, Shook realized that no contractor was more committed to the work than himself, and the company was born.
With the foundations for success established by Charles Shook a century ago, Shook Construction has grown to more than 500 team members in eight locations across Indiana, Ohio and North Carolina.
For a century, Shook Construction has helped communities thrive by building modern learning environments, creating spaces that promote healing, making clean water for our communities and powering American manufacturing.
