Pinkard Construction Awarded Bay Aquatic Park Renovation Pinkard Construction Awarded Bay Aquatic Park Renovation April 30, 2024 Share Share Pinkard Construction has been awarded the renovation project for the Bay Aquatic Park Phase IV in Broomfield. Project cost is estimated at $9 million and will include 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 general contractor for the original aquatic park when it was first built in 1991. Additionally, it was the first community water park in the Denver metro area, and due to age, condition, and updated health and building codes, the facility needs renovation. In 2022, BHA Design, Inc. and their team, including Counsilman-Hunsaker, were selected to design the project. Schematic design drawings were submitted in September 2022, and the project paused while additional funding was secured. Currently, the design is progressing toward the delivery of final construction drawings. "We are thrilled to have been awarded this project," said Tony Burke, president of Pinkard Construction. "We have a long history of successful pool construction projects in Colorado, and we are excited to bring our expertise to the renovation of Broomfield Bay Aquatic Park. Our team is ready to work closely with BHA Design, Inc. and the City and County of Broomfield to deliver a high-quality project that will benefit the community for years to come. It’s very rewarding to be able to come back over thirty years later and work once again on a project that the community has enjoyed so much. Many of our current employees remember coming here as kids." “Pinkard Construction has been invaluable during the preconstruction phase by helping to ensure constructability and that cost-saving measures are captured in the final design,” said Brian Graham, capital improvement program manager for Broomfield. Design work is anticipated to be completed in Spring 2024. The intent is to close The Bay Aquatic Park for construction in August 2024, with the objective to reopen the Bay Aquatic Park in July 2025, to ensure a partial Summer 2025 season at The Bay.

Pinkard Completes Massive Willoughby Corner Development Ahead of Schedule Pinkard Completes Massive Willoughby Corner Development Ahead of Schedule April 2, 2025 Share Share Pinkard Construction has completed Boulder County Housing Authority’s Willoughby Corner development under budget and ahead of schedule despite an early five-month permitting delay. Located southwest of the intersection of 120th and Emma streets in East Lafayette, Willoughby Corner is a master-planned greenfield project born of an intergovernmental agreement among Boulder County Housing Authority (BCHA), Boulder County, and the City of Lafayette. Pinkard’s Phase 1 of this development ($83 M in hard costs, $106 M all in) includes a 63-unit apartment building for 55-and-over residents, four multi-family buildings totaling 129 units, a community center, and $15 million in roads and infrastructure (R&I) improvements. Featuring extensive geothermal and solar energy systems, the all-electric project is now Colorado’s largest Zero Energy Ready Home community. The roads and infrastructure improvements came with considerable jurisdictional challenges as the City of Lafayette worked through its long term R&I plans. Thanks to a strong collaboration among the owner/design team, Pinkard, and the City, Pinkard was able to make significant modifications to the existing construction and logistics plans to accommodate the city’s ever changing requirements, but the R&I modifications resulted in a five-month delay to construction start. BCHA granted Pinkard a five-month schedule extension, but all parties agreed that meeting the originally contracted completion date was critical to BCHA’s funding needs. Pinkard ultimately completed the project as originally scheduled on December 31st, 2024, following an intensive resequencing that included a major revamping of the construction plan, an enhanced quality control plan, and numerous manpower adjustments. One design team member described the completion effort as “miraculous.” Pinkard Frameworks, Pinkard's in-house wood framing division, played a key role in keeping the project on schedule, with in-depth planning during preconstruction and considerable manpower adjustments in the field. Frameworks’ focus was saving money for BCHA while maximizing construction efficiencies and avoiding in-field redesigns. RS&H Principal Architect Tino Leone: “Frameworks’ approach to preconstruction planning and field efficiencies had a significant impact on schedule. It was a great benefit to the project.” All construction work was completed under near-occupied conditions, with heavy school traffic jams bisecting the construction site and significant road closures and detours impacting site access and deliveries. With numerous funding sources covering various aspects of this large project, Pinkard provided 30+ estimates during the complicated two-year-long preconstruction phase. Pinkard’s intensive collaboration and creativity in design optimization ensured a timely, in-budget construction start. Funding included 4% and 9% CHFA tax credits. BCHA Executive Director Susana Lopez-Baker: “We completed a $100+ million project with $15 million in infrastructure improvements on top of 192 housing units in 16 months. I think that’s just incredible. Pinkard was always flexible, and we were always beating challenges and meeting our goals. It was really exceptional to see, and people love our beautiful development.” Currently, Pinkard is continuing with the City’s R&I improvements surrounding the Willoughby development. Roads and infrastructure upgrades are expected to be complete by the end of May. The Boulder County Housing Authority is leasing Willoughby Corner now, with below-market-rate homes available for people earning up to 60 percent of the Area Median Income, or about $70,000 per year for a two-person household. Visit the Willoughby Corner website for more information about eligibility and applications. Community members are also invited to an Open House at Willoughby Corner on Thursday, May 8 from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m., when they can tour available homes and get help applying.

Men’s Mental Health Month: “I don’t have the answers, but I can listen” Men’s Mental Health Month: “I don’t have the answers, but I can listen” June 14, 2024 Share Share June is Men’s Mental Health Month. While there’s a loud and important push within construction to make our industry more diverse and inclusive, the fact remains that our industry is heavily comprised of men—meaning that the issues surrounding men’s mental health affect our community disproportionately. While Pinkard Construction strives to be a leader in mental health—recently earning the highest mental health resources score of any general contractor in Colorado as a Health Links “Blue Badge Certified” Healthy Workplace—much work remains in addressing the deeply-entrenched cultural norms that keep people, men in particular, from discussing mental health and taking action. In part one of our three-part series of Q&As discussing Men’s Mental Health Month, we chat with Field Safety Manager David Ruddy, aka “Safety Dave,” about the relationship between mental health and safety, and how making yourself vulnerable is the first step to getting others to open up. What first got you thinking about men’s mental health? Pinkard is big on mental health, but when it comes to men specifically, I remember hearing a speech on it from the Colorado Department of Public Health back in 2017. The guy had all these resources geared toward reaching men who might be resistant to it — like the Man Therapy posters you can still see in our breakroom — and it really opened my eyes to the unique struggles that men face. We started talking on the Pinkard safety committee about what we can do better. How do we give people an innocent choice to call somebody for help? One thing we did was start putting up these stickers inside every single porta-john on our job sites. They say “YOU MATTER” in English and Spanish, with a QR code that will take you to the “988” National Suicide Prevention hotline. What resources does Pinkard offer its employees? Our benefits package includes various resources through Cigna Behavioral Health, plus Magellan EAP, which gives everyone 5 free counseling sessions, and Youturn Health, a virtual support program for those struggling with stress and substance issues. I am part of the Youturn program, and, in fact, I utilize that service myself. I've had some challenges within my family, and with my Youturn coach, we’ll talk it through, they’ll give me advice, like, “Dave, this is not your egg to fry. Stop trying to cook it and leave it alone,” which is really, really helpful. How is mental health a part of safety in construction? You can’t have safety on a job if you aren’t taking care of people’s mental wellbeing. I give a lot of my “Toolbox Talks” on mental health, and when I do the safety orientation for new hires, I give everybody my phone number, and I say, “You call me anytime, day or night, it doesn't matter when you call. If you're feeling down and out, if you need a ride because you've been drinking too much, if you're just in a bad place and you want to talk, call me.” And people take you up on it? It has happened twice. Just this week I had a guy text me at 1:30 in the morning. We got on the phone and chatted for half an hour, and I think that's what he needed. He wasn’t going to hurt himself, but he'd been down and out for a while, and was feeling horrible about himself. The next day I got him connected with our HR department, and now they’re helping him get whatever assistance he needs. What do you think are some of the mental health challenges that are unique to men? I come from a generation where people say things like: “Just do it,” “Rub some dirt on it,” “Cowboy up,” “Suck it up,” “Quit whining,” “Put some duct tape on it and get back to work.” We suppress those feelings because we don't want to look like we're weak. We choose not to address the mental angst that we're in, until we can't anymore. It's just been bred into us. What are the challenges unique to our industry? The challenge is that we’re all under the intense pressures of deadlines. We build big, beautiful buildings worth millions of dollars, for clients who expect us to get them done on schedule, on time, and under budget. When you have deadlines like that, you feel it in your muscles. It lives in you. Because this is a high-pressure work environment, there’s a culture of “I don't have time to hear about your dog dying, or your wife serving you papers,” but as men, we have got to be able to express, “I am not all here today.” Just by giving someone three or five minutes to vent, you might be giving them what they need to get on with their day. What needs to change? The stigma and awareness. It's easier to have a conversation about mental health than it was 20 years ago, but there are still many people out there who are uncomfortable talking about it—and within construction we have people who come from different cultures where it’s even more taboo than it is in the United States. When you’ve got a broken arm, people can see the cast, they can see you’re injured, but they don’t judge you for it. When your thinking is broken, it’s invisible to the people around you, and there’s a real fear they might judge you for it. That has to change. What can we do to be part of that change? Just make yourself available, remind people of it, and check in on them. I’m not a fixer or a mental health professional, but I’ve got two ears to hear what you’ve got to say. I don’t have the answers, but I can listen. When you can make yourself vulnerable enough that somebody felt safe to call or text you and say, “I'm not doing well,” you know you’ve broken through somewhere. By contrast, if you're the guy that sits back and says, “Dude, you'll be fine. Suck it up and move on,” you might regret that. YOU MATTER: If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, we urge you to call or text “988” to reach the national Suicide & Crisis Lifeline , where you can confidentially talk with a trained crisis counselor 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Pinkard Completes Jacoby Meadows Affordable Senior Apartments Pinkard Completes Jacoby Meadows Affordable Senior Apartments October 24, 2025 Share Share Pinkard Construction has completed Phase I of the Jacoby Meadows Senior Affordable Apartments project for Windsor Housing Authority’s (WHA). The milestone was celebrated with a ceremonial ribbon cutting at the project site earlier this week. “Jacoby Meadows will provide safe, affordable housing for seniors, helping to enrich our community,” said Windsor Mayor Julie Cline in her remarks, acknowledging the long, nine-year process of turning the development into a reality. “With today's addition of Jacoby Meadows, the Town of Windsor will now have over 200 affordable housing units in our community... I'm proud to what we can accomplish when everyone puts their heart into a worthwhile project.” Developed by partnership of Pinkard Construction, Windsor Housing Authority, Loveland Housing Authority (LHA) and WORKSHOP8 Architecture, the two-phased project initially creates 62 units serving low to moderate income seniors (30-80% of area median income) over the age of 55. The second phase, which is still seeking funding, will add an additional 61 units. Despite several early challenging unforeseen conditions and numerous inclement weather days the 13-month, $18 million project finished on time and in budget, thanks in part to some creative construction brainstorming and a state-of-the-art approach to wood framing. During the sewer tie-in phase, construction crews encountered an unexpected “bedrock-like layer” that stopped just short of requiring blasting to penetrate. During the actual sewer tie-ins, unexpected groundwater became an additional concern, requiring an extended dewatering phase. To keep the project in budget given those unforeseen conditions, the owner-architect-contractor (OAC) team had to work collaboratively to find value engineering solutions as the project progressed. In one such solution, the OAC team was able to find a quarter of a million dollars in savings by switching exterior siding systems. Similarly, Pinkard's in-house wood framing division, Pinkard Frameworks, provided exceptional construction efficiencies to keep the project on schedule. Tasked with providing more than 63,000 sf of framing for the three-story complex, the Frameworks team began an exhaustive constructability and quality control effort during preconstruction, thoroughly vetting the framing design for layout, detailing, fit and finish. Procurement and site logistics were also high priorities, resulting in the team making expeditious progress from the start of construction and completing most of the framing in less than two months, even with 13 weather days. “Self-performing the framing in-house is so beneficial,” says Pinkard Project Manager Reid Kalsow. “We had our framing superintendent on-site early, working with the concrete contractor to make sure the embeds and hold-downs were installed just right, so that when framing started there were no hiccups. As a result, we got a better-quality structure framed at a faster pace.” Eric Hull, Director of Real Estate Development for Loveland Housing Authority, commented: "Today, we celebrate the power of partnership. The completion of Jacoby Meadows Phase I was made possible through the dedication of our investors, the crucial support of the Town of Windsor, and the unwavering commitment of the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) and the Colorado Division of Housing (CDOH). For seniors aged 55+ earning 30%-80% of the Area Median Income, this building represents stability and a vibrant community where residents can thrive for years to come. Pinkard Construction did another outstanding job of bringing to life the designs that were collaboratively developed by Workshop8 (Architecture), TB Group (Land Planning and Landscape Architecture), and EPS Group (Civil Engineering).” The community is named after John “Johnny” Jacoby, a beloved Windsor resident who was senselessly gunned down in 2015 while riding his bike near the building site, in a case that remains unsolved today. As part of the project, the Johnny Jacoby memorial statue was moved to its new permanent home in front of the building’s main entrance, along with a commemorative plaque. Jacoby’s family also spoke at the ribbon cutting. “We just want to always uphold Johnny's memory,” added LHA’s Eric Hull, “and we're just thrilled for the opportunity to honor his legacy with this project and help keep that alive.” Learn More Senior Living Construction See Projects Affordable Housing Construction See Projects Colorado Wood Framing Specialists See Projects Jacoby Meadows Senior Apartments Learn More Share This Story Share Share More News Sort By Topic Reset Pinkard Tops Out on the Daylight Collective Campus for the Action Center September 24, 2026 Learn More Pinkard Construction Becomes a Catamount Constructors Company, Uniting Two Denver Leaders July 7, 2026 Learn More Career Building Q&A: Edgar Tarin August 21, 2026 Learn More Pinkard Promotes Mike Hager to Construction Manager May 18, 2026 Learn More Load More Our Approach Partner, Plan, BUILD.

Pink Crew Breaks Personal Best While Building Beds for Kids Pink Crew Breaks Personal Best While Building Beds for Kids June 12, 2024 Share Share When skills and purpose perfectly align, doing good can yield some pretty impressive results. Last Friday, as June temperatures began to climb into the 90s, scores of Pinkard people gathered under the large outdoor pavilion at the Westminster Elks Lodge, across the street from the Pinkard construction yard, to roll up their sleeves and build beds for kids in need. Organized by Pinkard’s community outreach program, The Pink Crew , the volunteer event benefited Sleep in Heavenly Peace , an award-winning nonprofit that delivers beds to children who don’t have one. As the tagline on their trailer reads: “No kid sleeps on the ground in our town!” Needless to say, our people’s considerable experience building things with power tools made for an overqualified workforce on a project that required various teams to cut, drill, sand, and assemble the bed frame components before dipping them in a sealant bath and branding the headboards with a hot iron. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-t1LLDFa1g “The goal was to build 60 beds, but they’re not used to having construction people as their volunteers,” says Pinkard accountant Kristen Rebmann, who co-leads the Pink Crew. “When they asked how many people knew how to use a saw and everybody’s hands went up, they decided to leave the excess lumber they had delivered and see how many extra beds we could build in the allotted time. Our people ended up using up every board supplied to build 71 beds in 5 hours.” In total, 40 Pinkard employees, along with a handful of friends and family members showed up—all wearing their bright pink T-shirts—smashing the previous record for turnout at a Pink Crew event. “It was so great to see everyone come together, utilizing their skills to serve the community,” says CFO Odette Bent-Buckles, who worked the dipping and drying station of the assembly line, adding how she was especially pleased to see many faces who hadn’t previously engaged in Pink Crew projects. In addition to organizing community service opportunities through the Pink Crew, Pinkard offers 16 annual hours of paid VTO, or Volunteer Time Off , to all employees interested in pursuing charity work. Next up, the Pink Crew will be helping our longtime partners at the Action Center with their annual school supply drive taking place in July.
