In 2021, amidst their biggest year of TI revenue yet, Corvus Construction brought on Blake McClendon as Director of Ground-Up Construction. McClendon, an Army Veteran from Sugar Land, brings with him 10 years of experience as a commercial general contractor with over 6 million square feet of institutional tilt-wall experience in Houston.

"Corvus Construction built out the majority of the industrial shell buildings I have managed," said McClendon. "They have maintained a significant market share of the institutional TI market for a long time, and they have continually earned repeat work with the institutional customers in Houston. When Will Thornton approached me about starting a ground-up platform for Corvus Construction, I recognized it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join an amazing team built on three decades of quality service and industrial expertise."

"Our goal in starting a ground-up division was to offer our clients a turn-key solution for their projects while maintaining the same level of quality and service they have become accustomed to for years," said Will Thornton, President of Corvus Construction. "I am excited about Blake joining the team and our ability to offer our customers a comprehensive approach to their projects," said Thornton.

"I have worked with Blake and Will (separately) over the past several years on multiple ground-up and TI industrial projects. Their execution and delivery of my projects have always been at the highest level," said Driskill. "Corvus Construction has put together a great team for our Woods Road project, and I am confident they will make this project a success for Crow Holdings."
