Scope Of Work
This 2.06 Million-Dollar, 21,342 SF project is located in South Whitehall Township at the Crest Plaza Shopping Center. Retail A is the new Wine & Spirits Shop, Retail B is Plaza Beverage, Retail C is Atillios Restaurant and Retail D is the Hallmark Store.
This project was constructed on an “Open Book” Construction Management Basis with 100% of the cost savings returned to the owner. At the end of the project, we returned $21,000 in cost savings.
Permits were submitted on 09/05/02 to the Township. The Building Permit was received on 10/02/02 with a list of conditions that had to be satisfied before occupancy would be granted by the Township.
Construction was started on foundations on 10/02/02 and had to be completed and opened early enough to allow four existing retail Stores to move into their new space so the existing Strip Mall Store could be demolished and the site reworked for the new Target Store. A January 20th deadline was set by Target on the Developer Preit-Rubin, Inc. to have the pad ready for their construction. If this deadline was not met there was a Liquidated Damage of $500,000.00 set as a penalty. There was also the risk of losing Target as their anchor tenant for the mall. From the beginning of the project it was clear that there was no room for failure.
