Pinkard provided expert construction services for Koelbel & Company on the Kuhlman Building Adaptive Re-Use project. Kuhlman Building Adaptive Re-Use Denver, Colorado, USA Koelbel & Company 45,000 Sq. Ft., 45 Units Affordable Housing, Multi-Family Housing, Enterprise Green Communities, LIHTC, Renovation The Kuhlman Building project was the adaptive reuse of the existing 45,000 sq ft Kuhlman Building into for-rent affordable multi-family housing and retail/restaurant space. The affordable housing portion of the project consisted of approximately 40-50 units with a mix of studios, one and two bedrooms, two retail/restaurant pads, one in the Kuhlman Building, and one stand-alone. The new stand-alone pad was a 2,500 sq ft warm grey shell retail building near West 17th Avenue and Perry Street. Additionally, there was 4,500 sq ft of retail within the existing building. The site was approximately 50,000 sf and was located at the northwest corner of West 16th Avenue and Perry Street. Funding for the project came from a combination of developer equity, federal low-income housing tax credits, tax-increment financing from the Denver Urban Renewal Authority, and a performance loan from the Denver Office of Economic Development. The Kuhlman Building required gutting the interior but with only minor changes to the building's exterior. Over the years, the five-story brick building had served as a nunnery, a nursing school and dormitory, and administrative offices for St. Anthony Hospital. The Kuhlman Building was located within the larger Sloan's Lake/St. Anthony Hospital redevelopment area, which was named Sloans. When complete, the Sloans neighborhood included an Alamo Drafthouse, Highland Tap & Burger, the Raleigh office building, a 12-story condominium tower, a seven-story apartment community, a 6,000 square-foot retail strip, plus the Kuhlman development, all in a seven-block area between Sloan's Lake and West Colfax Avenue. The Kuhlman project was a development partnership by Koelbel and Co. and Trailbreak Partners, and Van Meter Williams Pollack provided the design.

Renovations Get Underway at Broomfield's Bay Aquatic Park Renovations Get Underway at Broomfield's Bay Aquatic Park 2024-10-11 Share Share As the summer pool season comes to a close, construction is now underway at Broomfield’s Bay Aquatic Park. The $10 million “Phase IV” renovation project for the City and County of Broomfield includes the removal and replacement of the primary leisure pool, family slide, body slides, and slide plunge pool, along with the addition of deck space, shade structures, and a new mechanical building. Pinkard was the original general contractor for Bay Aquatic Park when it was first built in 1991, making it one of the first community water parks in the Denver metro area. After 30 years of use, the facility was in need of renovation due to age, condition, and updated health and building codes. In 2022, BHA Design, Inc. and their team, including aquatics architect Counsilman-Hunsaker, were selected to design the project. After funding was secured, Pinkard was awarded the project this past February. The original Bay Aquatic Park upon completion in 1991. Just weeks after closing for the Bay for the season, Pinkard Construction has already completed demolition and is currently in the excavation and site grading phase of the project. Working under an aggressive winter construction schedule, the goal is to reopen Bay Aquatic Park by early July, to ensure a partial summer 2025 season . When the project’s site constraints necessitated that construction vehicles be routed through the residential neighborhood located to the southeast, Pinkard and Broomfield officials devised an outreach plan that proactively engaged the affected residents. In addition to instituting strict hours and speed limits for construction vehicles in the neighborhood, enforced by ample signage and monitoring, City and Pinkard representatives are holding regular “Info Table + Free Coffee” events in neighboring Highland Park where residents can ask questions about the project and air concerns. “We want to be good neighbors,” says Broomfield CIP Manager Brian Graham. “While residents are understandably not thrilled with the construction traffic, many have expressed appreciation for us taking the time to listen to their concerns and for our efforts to mitigate construction impacts. Once soil export and import wraps up this month, the number of trucks entering the neighborhood will reduce significantly for the duration of the project.” For the latest info on the Bay Aquatic Park renovation, Broomfield residents can find project updates, upcoming “Info Table + Free Coffee” dates, and a live camera view of the site at: broomfieldvoice.com/thebayrenovations Learn More Pool and Natatorium Constuction See Projects Recreation Construction See Projects Bay Aquatic Park Phase IV Learn More Share This Story Share Share More News Sort By Topic Reset Willoughby Corner: BCHA's Landmark Affordable Housing Development 2025-07-15 Learn More Pinkard Completes Bay Aquatic Park On Time and Under Budget 2025-07-07 Learn More Project Rewind: Prioritizing the Needs of 275 Seniors at Clermont Park 2025-07-09 Learn More Pinkard Tops Out Phase III of The Edge 2025-06-25 Learn More Load More Our Approach Partner, Plan, BUILD.

Pinkard Tops Out Carraway on Penn Multi-Family Development Pinkard Tops Out Carraway on Penn Multi-Family Development 2022-08-03 Share Share Pinkard Construction and OZ Architecture have completed the external structure for Carraway on Penn, a new 42-unit, approximately 34,619-square-foot multi-family residential property, with a focus on small unit sizes with lower monthly gross rents. The project is located just two blocks from the Louisiana/Pearl light rail station in Denver’s desirable Platt Park neighborhood. Confluent Development , in partnership with Narrate Companies , is the project owner, and construction is anticipated to be completed in October 2022. Tony Burke, president and COO of Pinkard, says the project is a natural fit for Pinkard’s teams, who have extensive experience building multifamily projects across Colorado. “Confluent Development is doing tremendous work bringing new and innovative multifamily spaces to Denver, and we’re very excited to be a part of the Carraway project, which is on schedule and on budget.” “Carraway on Penn represents a unique project for Confluent Development in the Platt Park neighborhood, one that will accommodate the increasing demand among residents for high-end, sophisticated apartment living in this community but at more attainable price points,” said Santiago Escobedo, development director at Confluent Development. “The project will incorporate features that adapt to today’s changing workplace, such as shared workspaces and boutiques, upscale finishes, and will appeal to those seeking an active yet simplistic lifestyle with convenient access to mass transit, parks and recreation, and nearby shopping and dining.” Matt Chiodini, associate principal at OZ Architecture, says that the goal with Carraway on Penn is to complement the historical components of the neighborhood while providing a thoughtful, modern living experience that will deliver lasting value. “ The complex site geometry, a triangle, inspired our team to pay special attention to key corners and show restraint along the street edges. Sensitivity to the building entries and window openings led to a unique asset that will provide much-needed housing in the heart of South Pearl district,” said Chiodini. “We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Confluent Development on this project in an extremely supply-constrained submarket in Denver. Working in partnership with OZ Architecture and Pinkard Construction, we have a first-class team and look forward to bringing this project to fruition,” said Adam Fenton of Narrate Companies. To date, Pinkard has completed more than 197 senior living , multifamily , and affordable housing projects, with a combined value of $3.9 billion.

Pinkard provided expert construction services for East West Partners - Denver on the Creekside Flats/Lofts project. Creekside Flats/Lofts Denver, Colorado, USA East West Partners - Denver 92,000 Sq. Ft., 80 Units Multi-Family Housing, Market Rate, Underground Parking, Wood Framed, Ground Up Creekside Lofts and Creekside Flats are each 40 units, 4-story wood-frame condominiums of approximately 46,611 gross square feet. The structures are Construction Type V, 1-hour rating. Exterior fascia includes brick, steel siding, and Portland Cement Plaster, requiring extensive subcontractor coordination and phasing. Each unit has its own condenser and aquatherm system. Common areas have forced-air, gas-fired heaters with condenser units on the roof. The condominiums are constructed above the 37,200 sf, post-tensioned underground parking structure. The parking structure's footprint covers the entire site of both phases. The parking structure's entry/exit ramp includes a snowmelt heating system within the slab. Shoring on the north side is at ten feet. Pinkard self-performed the foundations. In the early 1900's the site was used as a rail car coal-dump, which produced considerable soil contaminates. Pinkard coordinated with a specialty subcontractor to conduct extensive environmental monitoring during soils exportation. A 100-year old retaining wall separates the site from Cherry Creek. All construction activities were carefully conducted to assure that the wall was undamaged. Two different construction projects were underway at the site, which created very tight staging conditions. Pinkard and the other builder were forced to coordinate construction sequencing within a single staging area. Pinkard performed extensive preconstruction and value engineering for this project to help the owner make budget and stay competitive in the tight downtown Denver housing market.

How Pinkard Invests in People How Pinkard Invests in People 2022-08-17 Share Share In Colorado, the construction industry is facing a historic and problematic worker shortage, and Pinkard is focused on attracting top-tier talent through a focus on employee development, staying local, and a focus building high-performing teams over profits. "Pinkard is just the right size; I like that I make it home to eat dinner with my family every night," said Stephen vonDreele, a Project manager. "Pinkard doesn't just uproot you to work on a remote jobsite. They focus on winning work in our own backyard." For 60 years, Pinkard has built exclusively along the Colorado Front Range, and there are no plans to change that. Tony Burke, Pinkard's President, says that keeping its employees local is a high priority, and the overall direction he sees for the company is one of "controlled growth." "Pinkard is a Colorado company; we build projects for Colorado institutions Like CSU (Colorado State University) and School of Mines and affordable and senior housing that has a positive impact on this community," said Burke. "As many companies grow and branch out, they send crews out and their employees live in hotels; that is not us. We want our people to be with their families and enjoy living in this great state." In terms of community involvement, it is not rare to see several Pinkard employees in their bright pink "PinkCrew" shirts spending some of their provided VTO (volunteer time off) working together on Habitat for Humanity builds, homeless youth outreach or paint-a-thons for elderly people in our local community. "The Pink Crew is an important part of the Pinkard culture," said Kristen Rebmann, a Payroll/Staff accountant who helps organize these events. "Being part of the Pink Crew not only helps build a strong community, but it also helps us create lasting bonds with each other, and it helps us grow as individuals." In addition to this opportunity to give back, Pinkard employees work in an environment where the company invests heavily in developing their skills and diversifying project experience. Promotions are frequently made from within, and most employees start in rotational positions. When recruiting construction-focused graduates, Pinkard allows them to “try out” each of the three main career paths in Operations: Construction Management, Field Operations, and Preconstruction Services. This allows everyone to find where they will be the most successful and creates a greater understanding (for both individual employees and for the entire organization) about how each division interacts to serve the client. Leighton Neff, a current senior preconstruction manager, discussed how shortly after graduating from Colorado State University in 2006, he joined Pinkard and has since held Project management, field operations, and preconstruction roles. "I really enjoy that I got to work on different project types and try out the different parts of the organization," said Neff. "Pinkard has such a diversity of project types and sizes. I like that, unlike other contractors, I will not be locked into one project type for the rest of my career at the company. I get to explore a bit." Pinkard's controlled growth strategy is what makes this approach possible. Because Pinkard is mindful of matching its pursuits and workload to its staffing levels, it creates an environment where work-life balance and its employees' wellbeing are prioritized. "We have a unique culture here and are protective of it. It is why we do extensive strategic alignment interviews and communication and work preference assessments that we use to shape our interviews and even after an employee is hired to build high-functioning work teams.," said Jeff Kessler, Director of Human Resources. "We ask a lot of our employees in terms of professionalism and technical skills. So, we work hard to ensure that they are supported, developed, and have balance."
