For more than half a century William H. Lane Incorporated has demonstrated how attention to the changing needs of a growing and diverse clientele can lead to success. William H. Lane opened the doors of an 800 square-foot, three-room office in 1967. Lane's first project, awarded that October, was a 30,000-square-foot warehouse for the Borden Company in Bainbridge, New York.
Less than a year later, Saul Horowitz Jr., President of HRH Construction Corp., expressed his interest in the fledgling firm by awarding Lane its "breakthrough" contract. It was a $3 million, 241-room Treadway Inn (now the Holiday Inn Arena) in Binghamton, NY. That contract, successfully completed, was Lane's stepping stone to larger and more complex contracts. Through the next five decades the firm has climbed successfully from plateau to plateau, diversifying its portfolio to include General Construction, Construction Management and Design/Build projects. Today William H. Lane Incorporated specializes in Healthcare, Retail, Commercial, Educational and Manufacturing projects throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the U.S.
