Founded in 1913, A. Ottavino Corporation has performed continuously over the course of one hundred and eight years as a  business specializing in new construction, building restoration, fine art conservation and stone fabrication.  In addition to our full range of construction capabilities (cutting and setting stone) we are unique in the Tri-State area in our ability to create, restore, dismantle, reconstruct and conserve ornate and monumental stone with our in house facilities and artisans.  The restoration of the Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of our most renowned works.  Recently, we completed the restoration of the Brooklyn Appellate Court and the Whitney Museum.
