We are proud to be part of their team, and be an innovative and sustainable leader in the real estate industry."

The construction team includes Senior Construction Manager Dana Griffin, Superintendent Jeff Burke, and Head Estimator Karl Ginand. ADD Inc. is the project architect and RDK Engineers will serve as the engineer.
