CitiStructure, LLC

Ravi Reddy founded CitiStructure, LLC in 2001 after earning his master's degree in Civil Engineering and starting a career in heavy construction. His Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) certified firm has experience ranging from work on major ground-up retail buildings to residential projects, including the Build It Back program which helped families impacted by Hurricane Sandy.

Ravi has lived in New York City for over 25 years and is proud that his team can be part of the Project. "It gives us a great sense of pride," Ravi told us, "knowing that we are able to contribute to the premier convention center in the country and work on a project of such historic scale."

The CitiStructure scope of work on the Project is split into two trades. First, the firm is completing carpentry work involving framing, drywall and ceilings in the stairwells and TMF. Second, CitiStructure is also doing miscellaneous metal work such as elevator protective enclosures. Every day on the Project, Ravi's team strives to be a good model for future MBE contractors. Ravi explained that he wants CitiStructure to be "a quality contractor that happens to be an MBE."

That sense of pride and competitive spirit also showed up during the holidays last month. LLTJV held a Holiday Ornament Contest where each trade was asked to create an ornament out of materials that they use each day on the job. Ravi's group crafted a silver star using insulation board and foil tape. "The creativity of the submissions was amazing," Ravi said. "It was a great team building exercise."
