When we originally approached the owners, K2 Development, the Shoppes at River Ridge—an 110,000 square foot Life Style Center—was on hold when the estimates provided from another contractor were several million dollars over budget. We convinced K2 to give us the opportunity to use our constructability and value engineering expertise to try and meet the desired budget. Over the course of several months, our pre-construction team worked with the engineers and architect to reconsider aspects of the design while maintaining the unique aesthetics of the project. And our effort proved successful—we were able to hit K2's budget without dramatically changing the look and feel of the project.

Located at Riverside Drive and Dublin Granville Road, the center is positioned as a gateway development with architecture that is consistent with Old Dublin. Now that the main center is complete, the design suggests that the center was built over a period of many years—an aesthetic accomplished by using many different roofing and siding materials.

Many stores are currently open, including Sunflower Market, Coldwater Creek and Ann Taylor Loft, while other stores will open in the next several months.

While the main center is completed, we are currently working with K2 on outparcel construction that will likely take place in 2008.
