Pinkard Completes Preconstruction Phase of Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse Expansion Pinkard Completes Preconstruction Phase of Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse Expansion April 3, 2024 Share Share Rendering courtesy Z DESIGN GROUP Pinkard Construction has just completed comprehensive preconstruction services for the City of Commerce City’s $13.8 million Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse expansion. The seven-month preconstruction effort included close collaboration with owner’s representative Wember, Inc and architect Z Design Group, focusing on keeping the project in budget while closely adhering to the existing architectural style and city design standards. Commerce City Director Of Parks, Recreation, & Golf Chad Redin: “This project has taken an incredible amount of creativity, effort, and patience to get to the point where we can start construction. The Pinkard team has been amazing throughout the preconstruction effort. They have been reliable and resilient and continue to amaze and define quality construction standards. It is reassuring knowing we have Pinkard in our corner.” Construction scope for this $13.8 million project will include a renovation / addition to the existing 11,500 sf clubhouse and will add 5,500 sf of additional space including a two-story addition with a rooftop terrace/deck area and bar. Other new clubhouse space will include an elevator, an IT room, lobby, and expanded dining space. Renovation scope includes a full gut and renovation of the commercial kitchen with associated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades. Extensive utility re-routes and upgrades to new and existing buildings will require intensive collaboration with golf course operations to ensure pedestrian and vehicular safety while coordinating infrastructure upgrades.

Pinkard Breaks Ground on Residential Highrise in Denver’s Golden Triangle Pinkard Breaks Ground on Residential Highrise in Denver’s Golden Triangle March 15, 2023 Share Share Revesco Properties / Alpine Investments (RPAI), Pinkard Construction, and OZ Architecture celebrated the groundbreaking for a 12-story, multifamily project, akin Golden Triangle , on March 14th. Construction commenced in early February and is expected to continue into Q4 of 2024. The luxury-boutique building will contain 98 units of multifamily and amenities. “The Revesco and Alpine teams, along with our design and construction partners, have worked diligently over the past year and a half to get this project entitled and financed in a challenging environment, "said Churchill Bunn, Managing Partner of Alpine Investments. “We are excited to see akin Golden Triangle go vertical in the coming months and look forward to delivering a first-class project to one of Denver’s most exciting urban neighborhoods.” Positioned along Bannock Street, akin Golden Triangle is one of four of RPAI’s upcoming projects that will operate under the umbrella of one brand known as “ akin ”. RPAI is developing the brand to appeal to a sophisticated, discerning, urban-minded resident while elevating each local neighborhood by creating an elegant and timeless living experience. While exterior and interior aesthetics and amenities will vary per location, each will draw upon the same brand foundation: a distinctly urban recipe of design, wellness, culture, service, and connection to the neighborhood. Tony Burke, President of Pinkard Construction, says the project is a natural fit for Pinkard’s teams who have extensive experience building almost 200 multifamily projects across the Colorado front range. Burke says he is excited to partner with OZ on another urban Multifamily project. “It’s exciting to see the long-term vision of the development team come to life as we break ground on this unique project,” said Burke. “We’re thrilled to partner with Revesco Properties, Alpine Investments, and OZ Architecture to create a vibrant, urban living experience in the heart of Denver’s Golden Triangle neighborhood.” "We’ve approached the design of akin Golden Triangle with a deep respect for context, materials, and the inspiring aspirations of our client. The impact of its architecture lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but in its ability to shape its immediate environment and elevate the collective urban experience of Denver,” said Nate Jenkins, Principal with OZ Architecture. “This project is the result of the incredible teamwork of OZ, Revesco, Alpine, and Pinkard. It will leave a lasting impression, enrich the lives of its occupants, and adds to the vibrancy found in the Golden Triangle Arts District." Equity for the project was provided by Cohen & Steers ( www.cohenandsteers.com ) and Posterus Partners ( posteruspartners.com ).

Pinkard Commences Village on Main Affordable Senior Apartments Rehabilitation Pinkard Commences Village on Main Affordable Senior Apartments Rehabilitation April 19, 2024 Share Share Pinkard Construction, a recognized leader in Colorado affordable housing renovations, has commenced the $8 million rehabilitation of Village on Main Apartments in Longmont. Formerly known as Village Place Apartments, this project will be the renovation of all 72 units. It will conducted on a “rolling occupancy” basis to optimize the construction schedule with minimal disruptions to the residents. Challenges include vacating and renovating 13 units at a time while coordinating resident relocations. Pinkard anticipates a five-week renovation window for each 13-unit segment. Other challenges include minimizing water shutoff durations during new boiler installation and working with the owner/design team to find the most effective solutions for minimizing electrical outages associated with electrical system upgrades. During preconstruction Pinkard provided tax credit funding assistance, design-assist solar electrical input, and ultimately incorporated all owner wish list items into the existing budget. Pinkard also participated in design charettes with residents and the owner/design team to ensure resident programming needs were met. The Longmont Housing Authority is the owner/developer. Rosemann & Associates is the architect. To minimize the risk of unforeseen conditions, Pinkard and key subcontractors conducted a thorough exploratory demolition prior to construction. Pinkard President Tony Burke, “We are delighted to be teaming with Longmont Housing Authority to upgrade this beautiful old building and to help improve the lives of its residents. This is our first project with Longmont Housing Authority in many years, and we are excited to renew this important relationship.” Scope of work on this 68,000 square foot project includes top-to-bottom unit upgrades, common area and exterior improvements, the replacement of boilers, through-wall air conditioners, and electrical meters, plus demolishing an abandoned solar hot water system to allow for a new 165kw roof-mounted ballasted solar electrical system. Pinkard will also be replacing finishes, plumbing fixtures and lighting, roof membranes, and upgrading several units to meet current ADA standards. Pinkard is prioritizing economies of scale to help meet the hard, finance-driven, 10-month construction schedule. Construction completion is projected to be late September 2024. The Longmont Housing Authority (LHA) is a quasi-governmental agency authorized by Colorado Statute. The LHA has been in existence since 1975. The City of Longmont is the LHA service area. The LHA exists to provide housing and related services to low income and moderate-income families, elderly, and disabled households and to relieve the community of substandard housing.

" See the Project Couldn't Have Been Happier With Precon "I couldn't have been happier having Pinkard on board to help us through that preconstruction process. Our project (Vida at Sloan’s Lake) took so long to get all the financing partners secured, it pushed us out almost a year, but Pinkard held their pricing. It really was kind of a cool way to do what felt like a design-build approach (under a CMaR contract).

Creating Real Paths to Success for Women in Construction Creating Real Paths to Success for Women in Construction March 8, 2024 Share Share It’s probably not a secret that the construction industry has not always been the most welcoming place for women to be employed. Even today, women make up only 10% of the construction workforce. But with an estimated 45,000 new workers needed in the construction industry by 2027 just in Colorado, changing that landscape is not only the right thing to do, it’s imperative to our success. While change is not easy or straightforward, Pinkard has worked to identify areas of action to encourage women to join and have long, productive careers in the construction industry. These include working at the K-12 level to advocate for careers in construction, actively recruiting women into the industry, providing specific support, and mentoring once they are brought on board.   Early Education Pinkard has invested in recruiting and outreach at the K-12 level. “We are talking with schools and attending career fairs to let kids know that there are great jobs available in the construction industry,” said HR specialist, Tanya Navarro. “There are multiple paths to success. College is a great option, and so are the trades. In the trades, students can learn on the job while they’re making a living and not have to go into debt to learn skills that lead to a job that pays well.” Assistant project manager Krystyl Alexander agrees that positive career influences on young women can greatly boost the prospects of increasing the construction labor pool and giving women golden opportunities to flourish in a wide-open career market. “Construction seems to offer more job security and better pay than many conventional women-centric careers. My number one priority was “can I get a job after graduation? A lot of my friends in other majors have struggled to find work and are in the realm of ‘educated but unemployed.’”  Actively Recruiting Women Pinkard strategically targets events and organizations that cater to women in the industry. “Although we strive for a diverse workforce that represents both our community’s demographic and our clients’, we always hire the strongest talent for the job. We intentionally remain agnostic to the demographic of the candidate when making a hiring decision. With greater applicant flow from women, we are, however, finding more often the best person for the job is a woman. Not because she is a woman, but because of the technical skills, soft skills, experience and potential that she has earned,” says Navarro. Pinkard has also worked to train hiring managers to recognize bias and eliminated automated differentiation of resumes to include more people who have taken non-traditional career paths. “Not everyone comes to construction in the same way, but talent is talent and we want to hire that talent regardless of how those skills were acquired,” says construction manager Joe Revielle. “We have people who switched careers midstream and people who worked their way up through the trades as well as people who came to us straight out of construction management programs. They all have the ability to do great work and bring huge value to our clients.” Pinkard intern Kristy Swisher is a great example of someone with a non-traditional path into the industry. After starting a family and running her own business outside of the construction industry, COVID-19 threatened her livelihood. Considering a career change, Kristy took advantage of some available college grant money and enrolled in MSU Denver’s construction management program. She is currently in her first construction internship and has just over a year to go before graduation. Kristy is working on Pinkard’s South Metro Fire Rescue project and loves her project teammates. “When I first walked into the job trailer, I thought ‘Oh wow! Fish out of water! I’m the only woman here.’ But I quickly realized that no one was treating me that way. That ‘elephant in the room’ was strictly in my head.’ Once I got over that initial insecurity it has been great!” Support and Mentorship for Women Pinkard has also prioritized the support and mentorship for women coming into the industry. “We recognized a need for a group to specifically target some of the shortcomings in our industry. So we took AGC’s lead and created an internal Culture of CARE committee at Pinkard. One of the pillars of that group is to ensure that our teammates have support and mentorship as they move forward with us,” says Pinkard president Tony Burke. Alexander believes that Pinkard’s emphasis on understanding personalities is a great foundation for women seeking success in construction. “The ability to understand the personalities of the entire team helps us to understand people of different backgrounds with different insights, experience, and diversity, and that makes you stronger as a team and encourages the success of the individual.”  The Future Looks Bright “Hiring and training new talent from all walks of life is pivotally important to our industry. In addition to providing us with the quantity of talent we need, attracting people from across the spectrum provides important new perspectives, ideas, and ways of doing things. The diversity makes us better,” says Burke. Learn More Careers Apply Today!
