Occasionally Western Construction bids and wins business that lends itself to photos, video, and documentation. The SouthPark Square Apartments roof top pool project is such a project. First a little back story – the demolition of the previous pool and roofing material was underway, about 2 years ago, with a different construction company. For reasons, we can’t go into here, the demolition was halted, and the project sat for almost 18 months.
Holland Partner Group, who manages the building in downtown Portland, right off the main park blocks, reached out to Western Construction, and we submitted a bid and took over the project. We’ve been tasked with removing the old roofing, furniture, remaining materials, and prepping the roof for a fabulous new pool area designed by Garrison Hullinger and Dominek Architecture. The goal is new pool, roofing, decking, and creating an outdoor living area the residents of SouthPark Square Apartments can enjoy for years to come.
In our first of several videos, you can see the state of project and follow along. The roof was covered with a deteriorating tent, a half-completed demolition, dilapidated roofing and its quite a mess – but our crews and subcontractors are on it!
