Mosser Wins AGC Of Ohio Build Ohio Award For Kelleys Island Glacial Grooves Erosion Protection Project
Mosser Construction is pleased to announce that it was one of the winners of the prestigious AGC of Ohio 2023 Build Ohio Awards. Mosser was honored in the Specialty category for the Kelleys Island Glacial Grooves Erosion Protection Project. The bronze and marble Build Ohio Award was presented to Mosser during the annual Build Ohio Celebration on November 10, 2023, in Columbus, Ohio, at the Hilton Columbus at Easton.
The project included significant improvements to stormwater management, replacing an outdated chain link fence with a custom fit architectural railing system, and removing a dilapidated steel walk bridge with a modern, carefully crafted architectural pedestrian bridge. Mosser also integrated site enhancements within the rugged terrain to build out aesthetically appealing assets including the custom paver pattern design across the new plaza – selected to reflect the linear striations and colors of the grooves. Throughout the project, Mosser prioritized customer service, accommodating visitors who wished to see the grooves, even during construction, aware it might be their only chance to tour the landmark. All the while, Mosser navigated the logistical challenges associated with coordinating materials and equipment from the mainland across a passenger ferry during the peak tourist season.
Part of Mosser’s award-winning team on the Kelleys Island Glacial Grooves Erosion Protection Project included Chris Carry, Sitework/Highway Division Manager, Mike Ahten, Project Manager, Madi Slingwine, Project Engineer, and Project Superintendents, Vinny Stayancho, and EJ Harmon.
"We are honored to receive this award which recognizes the outstanding workmanship, dedication, and service that our clients expect in their construction partner. This is a team win and a testament to our people exemplifying the core values we believe are critical to our success."
- Brian Geffe, President/CEO of Mosser Construction, Inc.
