Henry Carlson Company Construction
Since its founding in 1924, Henry Carlson Company has established itself as a major commercial builder in South Dakota. Headquartered in Sioux Falls, this family-owned business is now led by third-generation principal Henry “Chip” Carlson III, who began as a carpenter’s apprentice before joining the management team in 1982 after earning a degree in Construction Management. The company has played a significant role in constructing many of South Dakota’s landmark buildings, including public institutions, hospitals, hotels, and civic facilities. Portfolio highlights include the original Washington High School, the Sioux Falls Arena, and the Airport Terminal Building in Sioux Falls, as well as the Alex Johnson Hotel in Rapid City and the State Capitol Annex in Pierre. Henry Carlson Company specializes in large-scale commercial and institutional projects, serving public and private clients throughout the state and contributing to the region’s skyline for nearly a century.
