Celebrating 100 Years
Our History
Since 1922, Ebsary Foundation Company has been a pioneer in foundation and marine construction services throughout Florida. Since incorporating in 1930 by brothers William H. and Henry L.(Lew) Ebsary, four generations of the Ebsary family have led the company in its construction business. The first job performed by Ebsary Foundation Company was the original City of Miami docks near the site of what is now known as Bayside Marina in Downtown Miami. For nearly 100 years Ebsary has performed all types of foundation installation on landmark projects in South Florida.
