Fifty years ago, Dave Nutting set out with a bold vision to integrate design and construction under one roof and established VIP Structures in Syracuse in 1975. What began as a small startup has grown into a thriving, fully integrated design-build firm with over 150 professionals. Over these decades, we’ve reimagined spaces, empowered industries, and made a lasting impact on the Central New York region.

Today, under the leadership of CEO Meg Tidd, VIP continues to build on its legacy of excellence, paving the way for a future of innovation and commitment to making an impact.

As we look ahead to the next 50 years, the lessons we’ve learned and the legacy we’ve built will guide us. VIP’s next chapter will continue to reflect our values of trust, collaboration, and excellence. Our mission remains clear: to find “A Better Way” for our clients, employees, and community, leaving an even greater legacy for future generations.

Join us as we celebrate, looking back with pride at where we started and ahead with excitement for what’s to come!
