Back for the Recovery

Gordon Knapp missed Florida's most recent boom and bust, but he's back for the recovery.

Manhattan Construction recently named Knapp senior vice president for Southwest Florida, an area that extends from Naples to just south of Tampa. His offices are at the company's Naples headquarters.

Although he was executive vice president of Denark Construction in Knoxville, Tenn., for the last 14 years, Knapp is no stranger to Florida. Before he left in 2000, he was an executive with Clark Construction in Tampa for four years.
