Housing

Ralph Korte founded The Korte Company to help neighbors with homes, barns and other basic projects. Decades later, we’re still helping people – just in different locations and the scope is a little bigger. But the fundamental idea is still the same.

Some of our most satisfying work, in fact, is constructing living quarters for the good people of our armed forces. We all understand that our soldiers are putting their lives on the line, facing dangers all over the world. So we take great pride in the fact that each and every soldier’s living situation, especially those regarding the soldier’s family, is one less thing they have to worry about.

Additionally, we’re an innovator in nursing home and senior-living construction, having completed thousands of units all across the country. Our work in the government-housing sector is equally expansive and includes Parsons Place, a 40-acre project in East St. Louis, Illinois. This successful, mixed-income development encompasses seven city blocks and includes a pool, play areas and new streetscapes.

How’s that for housing construction built smart?
