Founded by Maurice Hallen in 1927 as a welding company, the business expanded its scope when engineer Arthur Poole joined after serving in the U.S. Navy in the 1940s. Poole purchased the company in 1951, beginning Poole family ownership. Thomas Poole led the company from the early 1970s and was succeeded by his son Shepard Poole, who has worked for Hallen since 1991 and currently serves as President and CEO. In 2019, Hallen was acquired by Quanta Services. The company maintains operations hubs in Maspeth East, Maspeth Central, College Point, Canarsie, and a Special Projects administrative office in Roslyn Heights. Hallen's service work covers utility distribution pipelines, transmission pipelines ranging from 12" to 36" at pressures of 350 psi and above, high-pressure metering and regulating stations, and electrical conduit and cable support. Through its Special Projects division, the company also handles major gas and electric transmission projects across NYC, Long Island, and Westchester.

The executive and administrative office sits on Commercial Street, about a third of a mile from the Long Island Expressway and roughly a quarter mile from Beaumont Park. Plainview-Old Bethpage Community Park is within a short distance.

Drawing on nearly a century of work in the region's utility sector, Hallen Construction continues to support the energy infrastructure that serves homes and businesses across the New York Metro area.
