Safety Week 2026 was a huge success! From insightful guest speakers and hands-on trainings to fun safety contests and team activities, it was a great week focused on strengthening our commitment to safety, teamwork, and continuous improvement.
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the week such a success!
Building more than a space — building opportunity.
Bittenbender Construction is proud to serve as General Contractor for the new home of The Attic Youth Center in Center City Philadelphia. Located at 1206 Chestnut Street, this expanded facility will offer a larger, more accessible environment designed to support growing demand and enhance critical programs.
Supported in part by $800,000 in state funding, the new space will allow for increased programming, expanded mental health resources, and stronger community connections — all within a thoughtfully built environment tailored to the needs of the youth it serves.
We are excited and honored to help bring this impactful project to life. For more information visit: /2026/04/09/the-attic-youth-center-is-moving-to-a-new-home/

Honored to celebrate one of the best in the industry! 👏
We are proud to share that Tom Garbacz was recognized as Best Superintendent – 2026 at the Subcontractors Association of Delaware Valley’s Professional Showcase, held at Springfield Country Club last month.
This annual event celebrates the professionals across the construction industry who demonstrate exceptional skill, leadership, and dedication to their craft. The evening brought together General Contractors, Construction Managers, and subcontractors from throughout the Delaware Valley for networking, recognition, and celebration.

We were in the Back to School spirit at the office yesterday! We celebrated with a team lunch from @pastificiophila , shared our favorite summer memories and vacations with one another, and even raffled off a lunchbox full of goodies. Always a good time when we get together! 📚✨🍎
Our team just wrapped up a full interior renovation of the 14th Floor Neuro-Ophthalmology Suite at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia.
We are proud to support this world-renowned institution with modern, patient-focused upgrades that reflect its legacy of excellence in eye care.

From reporting on job sites to running them—Rosemary Connors is officially stepping into the construction industry!
We’re proud to highlight her feature in the Philadelphia Business Journal. Back in 2018, she interviewed Emily Bittenbender at our Love Park project.
Now, the cameras have turned—she’s launched Rosette Specialty Trades, a woman-owned scaffolding company serving some of Philly’s biggest projects. We can’t wait to see what she builds next. Wishing her and her team nothing but success on this next chapter!
Swipe for the throwback pictures of her interview with Emily @loveparkphilly in March of 2018.

Wrapping up Safety Week strong! 💪 Day 3 & 4
Yesterday, our team came together for an important Active Shooter Safety Training at the office, led by Dallas Krum of @medtexservicesinc .
At our Comcast site, crews gained valuable hands-on experience during Fire Extinguisher Training. 🔥🧯
