HISTORY

BUILDING ON  A FAMILY CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS

Our building roots go back to 1918, when John Deklewa Sr., a master builder, carpenter and furniture maker, began designing and building custom homes in affluent Pittsburgh communities.

​

Over the next 90 years John Deklewa Sr. (and sons) went on to build schools, churches, hospitals and other commercial and industrial structures.

​

In 2006, John R. Deklewa, our founder’s great-grandson, returned his focus to the family’s design-build roots.

​

Today, RDC has designed, developed and constructed more than $250 million worth of projects including 2,000+ multi-family units and over one million square feet of commercial space.
