Our ability to transform the natural landscape into sought-after residential communities is backed by our knowledge of land acquisition, real estate development and construction management from our family-owned construction business going back 100 years. Our family business legacy involved engineering, road construction and sitework businesses all the way back to our Great Grandfather Joseph Gradison who started Gradison Construction in Cincinnati Ohio in 1910. . Grandfather Wolford and his Brother Jules Gradison carried the road construction business forward moving it to Indianapolis after World War II where Wolford was decorated by Gen Patton for his efforts building bridges. Father David Gradison joined the family business in the early 1960’s after serving his country and started the residential development division in the late 1970’s. Mark and Joe joined the business in the mid 1980’s adding Custom Home Building to the Gradison mix of businesses.
Now, Mark and Joe, with over 30 years of their continuous ownership, assemblance of a very capable team, practical experience and creative execution, Gradison is deeply grounded in the design-development- construction disciplines that bring a unique scope of expertise covering all facets of land development—concept to completion. This deep-rooted experience in all phases of land development and construction arms us to manage every nuance of residential development without limitation, simply building on what we know as we proudly carry on the Gradison legacy.
