The plans have been submitted for review and the construction is scheduled for the first week of January 2012. All of us here at IONIC are excited about our first LEED project beginning construction soon. From what we understand this will be the first LEED Retail project in the area. We are striving for just the Certified level but that should still be an impressive fact for other developers of similar small retail boxes. This project is a mere 9000 square feet so if we can achieve LEED for this one, anyone can do it as well for their projects.
Once we receive our approval from the City of Norfolk the construction is planned for an early beginning in 2012 by Independence Construction of Virginia. The design team consists of Ionic DeZign Studios for Architecture and Interior Design, McPherson Design Group for structural, IDS+E and PM&E for mechanical engineering, 2D Innovations is our LEED Consultant helping out on the project. And Haskell & Folkes has been hired by the owner to perform the civil work.
If you are planning to do a new construction project and may have questions regarding making your project LEED Certified, please feel free to give us a call and we would be happy to discuss your options.
