The history of Hazard Construction Company dates back to the early 1920s when the company founder, Roscoe Elwood Hazard, Sr., known as "Pappy", began laying the foundation for what would become one of San Diego's largest general engineering contracting firms. Hazard Companies has been one of our most valuable team members for Otay Crossings Commerce Park.

Our 311-acre industrial development would not exist without the tireless efforts of the Hazard team. Part of the team since the project's inception, Hazard provided invaluable insight during the design process, facilitated the entitlements and permitting process, and - most importantly - delivered quality construction to help bring our Class-A development to life.
