“Metro Birmingham’s construction building boom has been good news for Jose Martinez.

His company, Martinez Masonry Arts, has 30 Hispanic workers laying brick and pouring concrete at job sites from Westside Baptist Church in Alabaster to Bright House Network’s new operations center in East Lake.

The role of Hispanic immigrants like those who work for Martinez, a Mexico native reared in Los Angeles, are being touted by two Birmingham-based trade groups participating in a national effort to promote the importance Hispanics are playing in the construction industry.”
