Tidewater Equipment

Tidewater Equipment Corp, Chesapeake VA

Tidewater Equipment Corp. started life in 1947 as a subsidiary of Tidewater Construction Corp. In 1998, Tidewater Construction was acquired by Skanska USA and became Tidewater Skanska, Inc., a division of Skanska USA, and Tidewater Equipment became TEC Skanska. The company is primarily a steel fabricator: most of the floating equipment it produces is used in the construction industry. The yard is on the Elizabeth River, on the southeast side of the Dominion Boulevard bridge: see it from the air on Google here. Comments or queries, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
