Celebrating our members, past and present
118 years. That is how long the members of Ironworkers Local 55 have been serving the communities you live, work and raise your families in and not just in Toledo, but our expanded footprint throughout NW Ohio and SE Michigan.
You see, our past and present members, along with our signatory contractors, live and work here as well and we are proud to be a part of building your schools, bridges, factories and the skyline of Toledo. From the historical Veterans Glass City Memorial Bridge, Davis-Besse to the new Cleveland Cliffs facility and the first ever upcoming Peleton factory built in the USA, we have had a hand in all of these projects! Our living wages and benefits package allows us to be contributing members to a community.
Beyond the work we do is the heart of what it means to be a member of Ironworkers Local 55. What is that you ask? It means that we take enormous pride in the work everyone sees, but it’s more. We donate our time and resources to help all union members. We are stronger together in our successes and setbacks in life. Our members are sworn to be considerate of widows, widowers, orphans and the weak and defenseless. That commitment goes beyond a jobsite.
Folks often say, “So you’re an Ironworker huh? You all are a different breed!” Well, they are right, we are a different breed and folks know it! We will not stop, we will not slow down and we will never give up! Long live the members and signatory contractors of Ironworkers Local 55!
