Alabama-based construction company Hoar Construction announced in February the opening of a new office at 300 E. Davis St. in downtown McKinney. This is the third Texas-based office for Hoar Construction, which has established offices in Houston and Austin, and its eighth office nationwide, according to a Hoar Construction news release.

“With the recent evolution of our working environment, we’ve organically found ourselves with a core group of talented builders who have settled their families in Collin County, one of the fastest-growing counties in Texas," Managing Director Brian Cook said in the release. "As we reflect on our 25th anniversary and look to the next 25 years, it was a very easy decision to plant a flag in McKinney. This next step presents tremendous growth opportunities for our team and allows us to serve our existing clients and partners in North Texas in a more impactful way.”

Hoar has completed projects in the North Texas area that include The Ascent at Victory Park, a luxury development near American Airlines, the new Wadley Regional Medical Center in Texarkana and a 40-bed rehabilitation hospital in Prosper. 512-661-6466. www.hoar.com
