General contracting company Mortenson has been a key building partner for MG McGrath on some incredible projects. In addition to working together on projects for other clients, we have also worked on projects together for our own buildings. Since 2008, MG McGrath has been fabricating and installing various metal projects around Mortenson’s Headquarter location outside of Minneapolis Minnesota


For over 12 years MG McGrath has been fabricating and installing metal cladding systems and decorative metal pieces on the Mortenson headquarter campus in Minnesota. Our work for their campus first started in 2008 with the fabrication of the logo-inspired archway over their main entrance. Three different archways were fabricated out of 11 gauge and 16 gauge COR-TEN weathering steel wall and soffit panels. These three weathering steel archways were then strategically layered in front of each other so the cut-outs in the metal panels produced a cohesive, dimensional image of their logo. Under the archways, is a 20 gauge stainless steel awning with a #4 Satin finish. The first connector link in their skyway system between the buildings was also clad in weathering steel with a natural rust finish during this time

McGrath didn’t just show us what the next steps were, they took them with us. The project came out better than we imagined because they were involved.
