JA Jones Construction was an international construction company headquarterd in Charlotte, North Carolina. In 2003 the company ceased operations.

Founding
James Addison Jones, a brick mason, founded in the 1890s what would become one of the most successful U.S. construction companies in the world. A classic American success story, Jones received only a few years of education in a one-room schoolhouse but went on to manage detailed, complex, multimillion-dollar construction projects. In fact, Jones was credited with helping to construct much of the Charlotte, North Carolina skyline during his time. He was also served as a city alderman and was a member of the first City Council of Charlotte.
