School Notes:
- IDC was founded in 1947 by Vito P. Battista, R.A. and is located in downtown Brooklyn. Since 1947, the purpose of the Institute has been to serve the building construction industry by dedicating itself to programs of instruction that deal with the real world of construction. The Institute provides the highest quality technical educational at a reasonable cost to the student.The goal is to prepare individuals for meaningful employment in the construction industry, while giving them the incentive to continue their education on a higher level. The implementation of these objectives is achieved through a structured program of study, small classes and a professional teaching staff.

In January of 1955, the Institute was organizationally changed to a not-for-profit institution and received a provisional charter for its curriculum leading to a Certificate in Architecture and a Certificate in Engineering. In September 1955, the Institute purchased a landmark church building at 311 Bridge Street. By then, the Institute had an enrollment of approximately 450 students, with 35 instructors teaching 58 subjects.

In January of 1974, IDC was authorized by the New York State Board of Regents to confer Associate Degrees of Occupational Studies (A.O.S.) in Architectural Technology, Building Construction Technology and Building Systems Design Technology.
