Every builder knows what you do before you lay the first stone of a job is just as important, if not more so, than the construction itself.

To that end, Providence, Rhode Island-based Gilbane Building Co. has added Anthony Armento as a senior preconstruction executive in its Philadelphia office, the company announced on Aug. 12. He’ll report to Jim Gibson, who will continue leading the overall strategy and advancement of Gilbane’s preconstruction and purchasing departments in Philadelphia. 

Armento joined Gilbane in July after spending 17 years with a local competitor: Red Bank, New Jersey-based Torcon, most recently as its senior preconstruction director in Philadelphia, according to Armento’s LinkedIn.

In his new role with Gilbane, Armento will oversee the daily operations of the firm’s preconstruction department. Gilbane’s addition of Armento will allow the department to focus on aligning specialized skill sets to its clients’ needs, per the contractor.

In addition to his presence in the Philadelphia area, Gilbane also touted Armento’s connections with the northern New Jersey marketplace, which the company says complements its location in Newark.

“Anthony has deep roots in our marketplace and brings excellent trade and client relationships to Gilbane,” said Shawn Carlin, Philadelphia senior business leader at Gilbane. “His experience across a wide range of markets within both Philadelphia and New Jersey makes him the perfect addition to our already impressive preconstruction team.”
