Out of the tragedy of Hurricane Agnes that thoroughly flooded the Wyoming Valley, Sordoni emerged as a new company guided by the third generation of the Sordoni family. The company’s intensive involvement in flood cleanup, renovation of structures, and reconstruction of downtown Wilkes-Barre provided a tremendous challenge and unique opportunity for the new management team.
Sordoni sharpened its skills in Construction Management and leveraged this expertise into hospital construction. Projects in the latter part of the decade included major expansions of Geisinger Medical Center, Mercy Hospital, Wilkes-Barre General Hospital, Community Medical Center, and Nesbitt Hospital.
