G. Greene Construction has been building in Boston since 1966 — not kitchens and bathrooms, but hospitals, university labs, and defense facilities. Based in Allston, the company describes itself as a commercial general contractor and construction manager, with in-house divisions for construction management, utility infrastructure and electrical transmission, and fire barrier work, self-reporting more than 60 years serving healthcare, higher education, life sciences, and defense clients across New England. That scale shows up in how outside sources describe it too: LinkedIn, the Associated General Contractors of Massachusetts, and independent business directories all echo the same story — a full-service, decades-old Boston construction manager with an extensive project portfolio and long-standing institutional client relationships across New England. Its public review footprint is thin and mixed for a company this size. Google shows 3.3 stars from 16 ratings, a separate Birdeye profile shows 2.9 from 19, and the tone across its small handful of reviews leans negative rather than positive. It isn't a BBB Accredited Business, and BBB hasn't issued it a rating. Worth noting for a company that promotes its safety program: it cites safety recognition from Highwire and GCI, but OSHA's own inspection record shows 6 violations and $10,100 in penalties over the years — worth asking about directly rather than taking the safety pitch at face value. The real question for anyone browsing this listing is fit: everything here points to institutional and commercial project work — hospitals, universities, utility infrastructure — not residential remodeling or repair. Anyone considering G. Greene for a house-scale job should confirm upfront that residential work is something they actually take on, and ask directly about that OSHA history and how it squares with their current safety program.

Thank you for working before 7 AM, consistently reaching decibels that reach across ALL of Allston! We all sincerely appreciate the sawing, truck beeping, and lovely times of your team working at 10 pm. You really do an amazing job at being a good neighbor to hardworking Bostonians, such a good job that I have reached out to the Boston Public Health Commission!
