Residental Construction

Company
Founder, Andy Greene, developed his interest in building as a Peace Corps volunteer in the North African country of Tunisia. Outside of the capital, Tunis, he designed and built his own residence using traditional masonry construction techniques. This was a part of a self-help housing program.

After returning to the US, Andy continued his passion for construction by working for a local builder, Steve Taylor, in the Thousand IslandsRegion of New York State. He feels very fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from such an accomplished builder. Here he learned the valuable skills needed to start his own company.

Greene Structures was established in 2000 as a family-owned building company with a focus on high quality construction, client satisfaction, and environment-friendly building practices.
