  • Jacoby Meadows Senior Apartments | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    Jacoby Meadows Senior Apartments ​ Windsor Housing Authority 63,000 Affordable Housing, Senior Living Jacoby Meadows is a planned age-restricted (55+) affordable housing project that will serve low to moderate income seniors (30-80% of area median income). The first phase will include 50 one-bedroom rental units, and 12 two-bedroom rental units. The project is being developed in partnership with the Loveland Housing Authority, designed by WORKSHOP8 Architecture, and partially funded with nine percent competitive tax credits and Colorado funding from the State Affordable Housing Fund. The Windsor Housing Authority selected Pinkard Construction to build this 62-unit, 63,000 square foot, $17.5 million project. During preconstruction Pinkard provided tax credit funding acquisition assistance and collaborated with the owner/architect team to develop a construction phasing plan to optimize the schedule. Pinkard Frameworks, the company’s in-house framing division , worked with the architect to identify constructability issues in the permit plan set, including implementing an alternative to corridor framing that is more efficient to build at a lower cost. Frameworks also found a local supplier to single-source structural steel and specialty wood beams, and to provide shop drawings and materials, eliminating the inefficiency of coordinating multiple suppliers.

  • Pinkard Begins Improvements on Two More Banner Health Centers

    Pinkard Begins Improvements on Two More Banner Health Centers 2024-08-07 Share Share This month, Pinkard Construction begins tenant improvements on two Banner Health campuses in Northern Colorado. Mountain Vista Medical Center (MVMC) and Nor thern Colorado Family Medicine (NCFM), both in Greeley, will receive cosmetic upgrades beginning in late August a nd running th rough the end of November . Both projects will be occupied and constructed concurrently, with a total budget of $626,876. The MVMC building’s scope of work will span the urology department, the rehabilitation department, the gastrointestinal wing, and the orthopedic department, and feature new finishes and details such as redesigned reception areas and other cosmetic upgrades including paint, flooring, and casework repairs. The NCFM building’s updates will include a new reception desk area, upgrades to nurse station countertops and offices, and new paint throughout. “At the heart of it, we’re upgrading their current workspaces to make their office staff and clientele more comfortable,” says Pinkard Assistant Project Manager Krystyl Alexander. “The changes might seem small, but they make a big difference for people who are working or being treated in the building.” The job’s biggest challenge will be completing all renovations while the medical center remains fully and continuously occupie d. With an intricate phasing plan and schedule that will allow for work in both buildings simultaneously, Pinkard will rely heavily on its close partnerships with subcontractors and constant communication with the department heads in each building to complete the project smoothly. “We really had to get creative with an in-depth phasing plan to be sure that we are only working in a given area when the department allows us to,” Alexander explains. “It’s kind of a logistical maze, where we’re going in when there aren't patients in those spaces and sprucing them up overnight before people come back in. It’s been a fun challenge scheduling-wise to get that right." Back in 2022 Pinkard completed a similar refurbishment of Banner Health’s North Colorado Medical Center (NCMC), in addition to building over 55 healthcare projects across Colorado's Front Range. “We are proud to work with an outstanding partner like Banner Health,” says Alexander. “Each project allows us to deepen our understanding of Banner’s needs and the challenges of working in occupied medical environments, and it feels good knowing we are helping essential workers do their job more efficiently in spaces that aid in their productivity.” Learn More Healthcare Renovations and New Construction See Projects Occupied Renovation Construction See Projects Share This Story Share Share More News Sort By Topic Reset Project Rewind: Minoru Yasui Plaza Twenty Years Later 2024-07-24 Learn More Men’s Mental Health Month: “We Must Keep Talking About It” 2024-06-28 Learn More Career Building Q&A: Blake Chambliss 2024-07-18 Learn More Men’s Mental Health Month: “We have to create a community” 2024-06-21 Learn More Load More Our Approach Partner, Plan, BUILD.

  • Project Rewind: Minoru Yasui Plaza Twenty Years Later

    Project Rewind: Minoru Yasui Plaza Twenty Years Later 2024-07-24 Share Share This summer marks twenty years since Pinkard Construction completed one of our all-time great adaptive reuse projects: the renovation of Minoru Yasui Plaza. Following its completion in the summer of 2004, the 197,000 square foot, $15 million, hard-bid, gut and renovation project went on to win Pinkard the prestigious 1st place National Excellence in Construction award from Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), and rightfully so when recalling the unique challenges Pinkard overcame to bring it to life. In a pure coincidence, Pinkard originally built the 17-story high rise in 1969, where it was originally home to the old Downtowner Motor Inn and Hotel. In the mid-‘80s, the fifth and sixth floors were widened to match the width and depth of the base below. Eventually, the building was acquired by the City and County of Denver to house the city’s Probationary Services Department, but first: The dated interior required a complete gut remodel, including asbestos abatement The antiquated HVAC system had to be modernized to meet modern fresh air standards The elevator electrical systems needed a complete overhaul The building required a new roof Floors five and six were in urgent need of repair after being deemed structurally unsound These needs were complicated by several factors: The high rise’s downtown, zero property line location ruled out the possibility of an external trash chute or standard dumpster The conventional scrape-and-grind technique to asbestos abatement was too expensive and time-consuming for the project’s tight budget and timeline constraints The structural repairs required a tedious hodge podge of unique fixes The former hotel’s narrow deck-to-deck height allowed only 9 inches of ceiling space (aka “plenum”) for HVAC, electrical, fire protection, and data cable Most tricky of all, the Minoru Yasui overhaul had initially been planned as four separate projects. In essence there were four separate designs, done by different architects and engineers, with unusual circumstances leading the city to put the drawings out to bid as a single project. And because this was a hard bid project, there was no possibility for a preconstruction effort (no constructability review, no value engineering), meaning that Pinkard, working hand-in-hand with ACLP Architecture, had to coordinate all of the competing drawings and correct all of the conflicts and overlaps as we built the project. As usual, Pinkard would lead this project using an intensive teamwork approach, but because this was a hard bid project with an evolving design, a large numbers of change orders were expected, and there was a concern that many of our subcontractors, who may have left money “on the table” at bidding, might try to make up their losses through the change order process. If this became a pervasive attitude, it would interfere with teamwork, problem solving, and the timeline and budget of our deeply valued clients in the City and County of Denver. For all the reasons above, Minoru Yasui Plaza was a recipe for disaster in the wrong hands. Strong, careful leadership was necessary, and Pinkard had to provide it. Pinkard wasted no time in tackling the Minoru Yasui’s multifaceted challenges head-on with creative solutions: Because the site was too tight for either a trash chute or full-sized dumpster, we devised a 5 x 5-foot internal shaft around a mechanical chase that connected all 17 floors. When bobcats would push demo’d material into the shaft, falling debris would be ramped into the lobby and then dumped in one of two small dumpsters. When it came to abatement, we realized we could take a Spin Jet—a lawnmower-like machine that uses high-pressure water nozzles to remove mastic and flooring—and mount it upside down on a scissor lift to peel off the thin layer of asbestos ceiling in record time. Because the 9-inch plenum did not allow for a conventional HVAC system, we implemented a special European hydronic radiant panel system that required only 4 inches of ceiling space. This system had never before been used in a building this large in the United States. As for the elevator upgrade, it was up to Pinkard to devise a workable schedule that allowed the elevator contractor the required down-time to work without bringing all other aspects of the job to a halt. When it came to the job’s greatest vulnerability—rapid-fire change orders in a complex hard bid project—Pinkard Construction’s steady, collaborative, and fair-minded leadership kept everything in line for our client. “I know for a fact that there were some important subs on this job that are generally considered to be ‘hard bid kings,’” remarked then-PCC president Jim Pinkard, “but on this job, they ignored their normal ways of doing business, pitched in, and helped us find some great solutions.” At the time, City and County of Denver project manager Madie Martin said, “Pinkard provided the best management of a construction project I have experienced in my 27 years of practicing architecture.” Others agreed, with ACLP Architecture’s Steve Loos saying, “This was by far the most complicated thing we’ve ever done,” and abatement project manager Luis Hernandez admitting, “This project was one of the toughest I’ve seen in over 25 years.” Looking back now, longtime Pinkard employee Mike Levchik, who was a project engineer on at the time, recalls, “Minoru Yasui is the proof that intense pressure can create diamonds. Through our close collaboration with subs, architects, and the City and County of Denver, we not only overcame incredible obstacles, but also managed to cut the job’s schedule by a third.” Learn More Adaptive Reuse Construction Learn More Office Renovations and New Construction See Projects Municipal Construction See Projects Minoru Yasui Plaza Learn More Share This Story Share Share More News Sort By Topic Reset Career Building Q&A: Blake Chambliss 2024-07-18 Learn More Men’s Mental Health Month: “We have to create a community” 2024-06-21 Learn More Men’s Mental Health Month: “We Must Keep Talking About It” 2024-06-28 Learn More Men’s Mental Health Month: “I don’t have the answers, but I can listen” 2024-06-14 Learn More Load More Our Approach Partner, Plan, BUILD.

  • Career Building Q&A: Blake Chambliss

    Career Building Q&A: Blake Chambliss 2024-07-18 Share Share Construction is a huge industry with a multitude of career paths. With the Career Building Q&A , we ask some of Pinkard’s longest tenured employees to share stories, advice, and lessons leaned over their own career journeys. In our first edition, we spotlight Blake Chambliss, whose remarkable 40 years at Pinkard has seen him rise from a journeyman carpenter to Chief of Operations. How did you get started in construction? My father is an architect, and he introduced me to a home building contractor. We formed and poured foundations and driveways, framed and sided, and did all interior trim including setting cabinets and countertops. How did you come to Pinkard Construction? I had just moved to Denver and was working for a multifamily developer when I heard that Pinkard was hiring. I hired on as a carpenter and we were just coming out of the ground and doing the concrete frame on the Hyatt Regency hotel in the Denver Tech Center. Superintendent-era Blake (circa 1996) Tell us the play-by-play of your evolving roles and responsibilities at Pinkard. I started out as a carpenter in 1984, and soon moved up to carpenter foreman at a time when we were doing a lot of high-rise PT cast-in-structures. I was promoted to Assistant Superintendent in (1986) and worked on Harvard Gulch Rec Center, DirecTV Broadcast Center, Tropical Discovery at the Denver Zoo, and a couple others. In the early ‘90s I was promoted to Superintendent and did several tenant improvements, a train wash station in Alliance, Nebraska, and some renovations before doing the first of several recreation projects in Highlands Ranch, including both phases of the Westridge Recreation Center and the renovation of Northridge Rec Center. I built several tilt-up projects (boring, like watching paint dry) and was put on three projects to replace existing superintendents, one of those still only in the foundation phase. In 2004, I was promoted to Field Manager where I also managed the self-perform concrete when we were doing decks and cores, and we did some very impressive architectural concrete using Agilia, a self-consolidating concrete, on One Riverfront. I worked as a project manager to replace a departed PM and finish up West Metro Fire. Finally I was promoted to Construction Manager before being named COO in 2022. What have been some of your career highlights? I really enjoyed working on Westridge Rec Center. We had a great repeat client in Highlands Ranch and [architect] Sink Combs (now Perkins & Will), and it was really rewarding being involved in preconstruction and working with [structural engineer] Martin & Martin to make structural changes to facilitate the proper sequencing of steel, masonry, and concrete. The architectural concrete at One Riverfront was fun to do. We did several mockups using different form-plys and form release agents to get the desired end-product, and we even used a pump to pour the mock-ups—not because of accessibility but because we needed to exactly replicate how we were going to pour the final product. In-progress architectural concrete at ONE Riverfront What’s the biggest challenge you’ve had to overcome? Probably taking over the projects that were already behind schedule and getting them finish on time. Also, the water and rock challenges we had on a tilt project we did at 6th & Indiana. The soils report said no water or rock, but we ended up having to blast rock (Colorado blue shale) and install wells to keep the water out of the foundations. What’s was your most memorable project at Pinkard? There have been a lot of great days, but form setting and flying decks at the Hyatt Regency was super fun, even though we had to hear superintendent Leroy Jefferson yelling like a mad man all the time! What’s the best advice you ever received? When I worked at DSP Builders, a superintendent said, “You’ve got to have eyes out your ass, because as soon as you turn around someone will f#@& something up,” and that’s never been truer. You always need to be aware of what people are doing and that can only be done by continually walking the job with your eyes and ears open. What’s the worst advice you ever received? I don’t ever recall getting bad advice. There are always lessons to be learned, and a day without learning something new is a lost day. What’s your advice for people navigating careers in construction? Ask a lot of questions.

  • Reserve at Northglenn | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    Reserve at Northglenn Northglenn, CO, USA Security Properties 301,200 Sq. Ft., 270 Units Affordable Housing, Multi-Family Housing, Wood Framed, LIHTC, Occupied, Renovation, Ground Up Early in design, parking/ unit density complications with city planning and zoning required a dramatic cutback in the number of buildings SP was planning. The timing of the decision by planning and zoning jeopardized SP’s year-dated funding and required a quick, efficient response by the entire team to keep the project on track. Pinkard quickly worked closely with the client and EJ Architecture to work out massing strategies to balance the client’s unit density and parking needs with city planning and zoning restrictions. Despite considerable numbers of unforeseen conditions and numerous owner changes associated with extensive RFI’s, Pinkard stayed on schedule by taking advantage of available economies of scale. This allowed the team to increase productivity from completing four units per week to six-to-eight units. This was accomplished despite apartment-staff turnover and a steep learning curve for tenants and staff regarding move-out logistics and construction commencement milestones. Pinkard also collaborated with SP during construction to help SP to develop construction standards and specifications for SP’s company-wide building standards. Scope of work on the renovation includes new roofs, full paint, window replacement, new individual water heaters and HVAC, and ADA modifications.

  • 4725 South Lowell | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    4725 South Lowell Denver, Colorado, USA Denver Housing Authority 100,201 Sq. Ft., 96 Units Affordable Housing, Multi-Family Housing, Extensive Site Infrastructure, Enterprise Green Communities, Wood Framed, Tight Site, Sustainable, LIHTC, Occupied, Addition, Renovation, Ground Up 4725 S. Lowell, an affordable multi-family apartment development owned by the Denver Housing Authority (DHA) was built in 1964. Its leaking pipes, mold, structural damage and inefficient heat for both the units and hot water were just a few of the many problems prompting DHA to initiate a rehabilitation of this property. Along with rehabilitation of the existing structure, DHA wanted to add 50% more units to the site. Initially, the idea was to "pop-the-to" and add an extra level, but it was found that the structure couldn't support this approach. The existing building is a "square donut" with a large center courtyard so the idea was proposed to build another structure inside this courtyard, something that has never before been done in Denver. This approach had many valuable outcomes including fitting in with the scale of the neighborhood and effectively making the new 4-story structure "disappear". This project had many challenges, most of which were a result of the building-within-a-building design. Myriad issues with fire codes and site drainage had to be solved and close coordination between Pinkard, DHA and WORKSHOP 8 was essential. The new building, comprising 91,900 sf is an attractive structure which meets Enterprise Green Communities Standards.

  • Eaton Terrace Remodel | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    Eaton Terrace Remodel Lakewood, CO, USA Eaton Senior Communities 47,000 Sq. Ft., 64 Units Senior Living, Affordable Housing, Multi-Family Housing, Independent Living The Summit Assisted Living conversion project is a major renovation of a vacant six-story tower that is a part of the larger Eaton Community campus in Lakewood. Work includes structural and MEP retrofits and extensive unit renovations that include plumbing stack additions and rerouting, electrical redistribution, demising wall relocations, and unit buildouts. Pinkard "rescued" this project for Eaton Senior Communities when the originally hired contractor was replaced during the preconstruction phase. When Pinkard entered the project in May 2018, midway through the schematic design phase, the project was almost $6 million over budget and falling dramatically behind the owner's tight schedule. Because the tower was in the process of being vacated, the delay significantly imperiled the owner's revenue projections for 2018/ 2019 and created a dramatic need for urgency and efficiency within the Pinkard preconstruction team. The owner's program challenged the Pinkard preconstruction team to find the most economical ways to consolidate 74 smaller assisted living (AL) units into 64 larger independent living (IL) units. The consolidation process included finding the best utilization of existing plumbing stacks Following several timely partnering and design charrettes, the OAC team agreed upon a value engineering plan that enabled Eaton to maintain nearly all of its original program while meeting the owner's $6.4 million budget. Pinkard's unit massing/revenue studies with Eaton and EJ Architecture were key to budgetary success in preconstruction. During budgeting/VE, Pinkard constructed an architectural mockup of a proposed unit to enable the ownership team to visualize proposed unit sizes better. To accelerate the design phase and allow construction to commence closer to Eaton's originally projected start date, the team agreed to combine the design development drawing phase with the construction document phase. This approach shaved roughly six weeks off the design schedule. Despite the considerable delays associated with the changeover to Pinkard during preconstruction, Pinkard was able to complete the project within budget and only 13 days beyond the completion date set by the original contractor. Construction on this affordable housing project was privately funded.
