Development Areas of Expertise and Focus
Marathon Development builds on our Construction business’ long record of success and client satisfaction, and extends our operations into project conception, acquisition, design, and implementation, with a particular focus on expanding housing options. We aim for collaboration with purpose, delivering solutions to some of our communities’ toughest challenges.
Leveraging the four decades of expertise, problem-solving, and value engineering of our CEO, Harry Angevine, Marathon is able to develop, finance, and construct projects more economically and often on a shorter timeline than traditional developers. With lower total development costs, we are able to create more affordable inventory to serve a much needed population. This coupled with our trendsetting approach to provide a litany of services to our residents sets us apart from traditional developers and makes our projects a true success story for our constituents.
Marathon Development strongly values its relationships with government agencies, civic groups, and the communities we serve and welcomes new opportunities to meet the needs of our communities.
MARATHON DEVELOPMENT CAPABILITIES
-
In this time of economic uncertainty and widespread housing shortages, Marathon Development has stepped forward to deliver fresh, outside-the-box answers. Our success stories include the redevelopment of Rockville Mill, a 13-unit supportive housing complex in Hopkinton, R.I. that includes wrap-around services in partnership with well regarded supportive services providers. The integration of these services have created a community within this development where residents work together to ensure the success of one another and has become a model for future developments.

Leveraging the depth of experience Marathon Construction has in the historical arena, Marathon Development aims to renew and repurpose existing historical buildings in communities that are lacking housing. By taking otherwise blighted properties and bringing life to them both through new residents as well as service providers/commercial tenants we are able to make these neighborhoods vibrant once again.
