The Challenge
The primary challenge was to undertake the removal and replacement of the existing, deteriorated sidewalks while minimizing disruptions to the residents. Given the urgency outlined in the bank’s notice to address hazardous “trip hazards,” we had to swiftly mobilize our team to ensure compliance with safety standards.
The project demanded meticulous planning to maintain pedestrian safety during construction and meet tight deadlines. Additionally, creating an inviting and functional outdoor space required strategic design and execution to optimize the area for grills and pavilions.
This involved balancing the need for aesthetic appeal with practical functionality, all while adhering to safety and quality standards. Our approach ensured that the upgraded sidewalks and new communal space not only enhanced safety but also improved the overall living experience for the residents.
