"I created a building that was able to create an environment in which other human beings really enjoy what they do every day." —Richard Ahrens
In many ways, that statement captures the essence of Richard Ahrens. After decades of shaping skylines, industrial facilities, manufacturing operations, and commercial developments, his greatest source of pride is not the structures themselves.
It is the people inside them.
When asked what he hopes people say about Ahrens Companies decades from now, his answer returns once again to the same themes that have followed him throughout life. "That we were an enjoyable group of human beings to do business with. That we were trustworthy. That we were transparent."
