Southway Builders, one of Baltimore's largest construction management firms, announced its acquisition of Durham, North Carolina-based BridgePoint General Contracting Co. Southway is led by President William "Willy" Moore ’81. 

The acquisition of BridgePoint enables Southway to expand its footprint in the Tar Heel state. The firm opened an office in Raleigh, North Carolina, in September 2023, with an eye for growth in the Triangle (Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill). The agreement allows BridgePoint to merge its 22 employees with Southway's 10 Raleigh-based workers. Through BridgePoint, Southway will add commercial, laboratory, healthcare, and academic-based development projects to its portfolio.

Southway Builders was founded in 1991 and is based in Locust Point. The company has a total staff of 100 and has managed the development of more than 7 million square feet of commercial projects and over 10,000 multi-family units. Southway reported revenues of $110.18 million in 2023.

In an interview with the Baltimore Business Journal, Moore described the acquisition of BridgePoint as a good match: "It’s rare that you find a company that fits so well with our own company’s values and culture, and when you find that synergy, you can’t let it go."
