The Legend of McCarthy

The Legend of McCarthy recounts the remarkable saga of one of America's oldest and largest privately held construction companies. McCarthy's deep roots reach to the Civil War era, when Irish immigrant Timothy McCarthy began a small business in Ann Arbor, Michigan, building farmhouses and barns. For three subsequent generations, the company was owned and run by the colorful McCarthy family, and each generation preserved the traditions and values of its predecessors. More than anything, the story of McCarthy demonstrates what can happen when perseverance, passion, and savvy people come together. The result is a nationwide reputation for quality and old-fashioned integrity?values that continue with the company's transition from a family-owned business to an employee-owned one.
