Scope Of Work
The precise demolition and merging of new construction with existing operations was one of the most significant challenges to this unique project. This project consisted of a 3-story addition, comprised of 230,000sf of Offices, Exhibit Halls and Conference Areas, Ballrooms, Kitchens, Food Service Areas and Ancillary Support Facilities. This extensive project had many challenges such as: relocating the existing roadway to accommodate construction traffic, temporarily filling in retention ponds to support staging areas, improving exterior to create a continuation of design, as well as, redesigning the southernmost entry to accommodate for a three-story covered entry and the reconfiguration of elevators, pedestrian bridge and roofing. In addition this project required strict schedule and safety coordination with Port Everglades directly adjacent to the site. Project highlights included: * 25% M/WBE Participation * Tight Site Downtown Location * Required strict schedule and safety coordination with Port Everglades * Fast Track Construction delivered on schedule * Davis Bacon Compliance * High End Finishes
