Monday mornings bring fresh starts, and this one comes with quite a few new hard hats.
McHugh is excited to welcome our 2026 SUMMER INTERNS to the construction industry.
New generation.
New perspectives.
New ideas.
Bright futures.
All stepping into an industry built on teamwork, learning, and hands-on experience.
Looking forward to seeing what this group accomplishes over the summer.
Welcome aboard. We are thrilled to have you here at McHugh!

Congratulations to our own Dan Jordan, Senior Innovation & Technology Manager at McHugh Construction, on being recognized with the 2026 “Our Stars Are Shining” Award for Outstanding General Contractor Representative by the ASA Chicago.
If you know Dan, you also know the spotlight has never been his thing. But this recognition, voted on by colleagues and industry peers, speaks volumes about the way he approaches both his work and his relationships.
Dan is committed to improving the day-to-day experience for both McHugh and our trade partners. Whether through innovation, technology, education, or collaboration, he consistently leads with a people-first mindset grounded in respect, partnership, and practical problem-solving.
His involvement with the ASA Education & Technology Committee reflects that same commitment to strengthening the industry together. Well deserved, Dan.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the 1901 Project Workforce Outreach Event. The energy, turnout, and meaningful connections made it a huge success.
From project updates to real hiring opportunities, this is how we build - with purpose and with community.
We’re proud to lead construction of the 1901 Project, along with our JV partners, Ujamaa and GMA, and look forward to continuing the strong momentum behind the build.

Dobson Ice Arena – Vail, Colorado
Slabs are down. Steel is decked. Roof membrane is going on.
We’re almost 95% through slabs on grade, framing is climbing, and MEP is filling in behind it. Next up: setting north boulders and pouring the NW wall extension.
The next chapter of Dobson is taking shape.

A peek inside one of the coolest McHugh Construction holiday celebrations to date:
This past weekend, our team gathered at the United Center’s Super Suite for our annual holiday celebration and the Bulls vs. Pacers game.
Earlier this year, McHugh completed a full renovation of the suite, including updated finishes, lighting, and subtle branded touches, designed to create a more inviting experience for guests.
It was great to experience the space post-construction, this time filled with colleagues, Christmas cheer, and plenty of laughter. As we close out the year, we’re grateful for moments like these that bring our team together and remind us to appreciate both the projects we build and the people who build them.
Wishing everyone a warm and joyful holiday season.
