Swinerton’s 25th anniversary in the Texas construction market last year easily could have been tarnished by the upheaval of the coronavirus pandemic. Though the company certainly wasn’t immune to 2020’s challenges, it did manage to power through the difficulties, literally and figuratively, thanks to a healthy backlog that included a strong presence in several active sectors, including commercial development, technology and the state’s booming renewable energy market.
Swinerton’s nearly $647 million in 2020 regional revenue was driven by commercial growth associated with continued corporate relocations to Austin and Dallas, home to Swinerton’s Texas headquarters and two-year-old branch office, respectively. Projects in the state capital include the build-out of Domain 10, a $48-million, 15-story, Class A, podium-style office building, and Center Lake 02, a $28-million, 130,000-sq-ft design-build tenant improvement project. Dallas-area projects include a 36,740-sq-ft tenant improvement project for Qualtrics in West Plano and a 38,750-sq-ft hangar project at Dallas Love Field.
