Ramona Metro Point – A Transit Oriented Development

The Conco Companies has been working on Ramona Metro Point since November 2022. This project, developed by Community Development Partners, is another affordable housing project that Conco is proud to be a part of. Working with Walton Construction, Conco is providing reinforcing, concrete pumping, place and finish, as well as shotcrete services. This project is anticipated to finish on April 2, 2023 and will bring 50 affordable housing units to the area.

Ramona Metro Point is a 4 story, wood-framed, transit-oriented development in El Monte, CA. Its unique horse-shoe design optimizes both style and function for the much-needed low-income housing in the area. The development, along with many others for which Conco assists, are part of the massive strive to accommodate and combat the housing crisis which exists within the general Los Angeles Area. Conco has taken every opportunity to expedite the construction schedule, doing our part in this life-improving effort.

Nearly half of the units at Ramona Metro Point will be specifically designated to house families of El Monte Unified School District that identify as homeless. Coupled with social services and educational classes it will provide, Ramona Metro Point is designed to make a positive impact on the community.

The Conco Companies is currently working on COSM Hollywood Park with Webcor. Built in the shadows of the new So-Fi Stadium, and designed by HKS, this 3 story Entertainment Venue will be the first of its kind in the Los Angeles Area. As part of Hollywood Park’s retail district, the venue will showcase a gigantic LED dome to display live sports and entertainment, experiential events and content, immersive art, music, and more, all in much higher definition than has been brought to similar venues in other parts of the world. This will be a great addition to the expanding Inglewood community, rapidly becoming iconic for its entertainment experiences!

Conco began work on COSM Hollywood Park in November 2022. Providing rebar, concrete pumping and place and finish services throughout the project, we look forward to seeing a finished product in July 2023. When finished, The Conco Companies will have poured a total of 3,100 cubic yards of concrete on top of 360,000 pounds of rebar. The total square footage of deck will total 80,000 square feet!

In an incredible schedule of 14 mat pours in 9 weeks that were all turn key projects for Conco, one week especially stood out. September 24^th through October 1, 2022, brought Conco four mat pours in one week. It started with the Tasman East Apartments, then Dwight & Milvia and The Station jobs. We finished up the week at the 24^th & Waverly project. These projects are all turn-key projects for Conco. In addition to concrete pumping, we are providing the rebar, place and finish work, formworks, and shotcrete.

Conco poured 13,794 yards of concrete at these four mat pours in that week alone. We averaged 450 yards poured per hour for most of the pours. Each jobsite is unique in its challenges and our teams impressed not only us, but the General Contractors, the City’s, and the other trades on the jobs with their diligence and advanced planning. We not only got the job done, but got it done as safely as possible.

Our Reinforcing services set the stage for each of these successful pours. Conco Reinforcing delivered 100 loads of rebar, totaling 4,000,000 pounds for the combined four pours for that week alone. This was all made possible with the contribution from Conco’s state of the art rebar fabrication facility in Benicia, CA. The detailers and project engineers at the office and the crew at our rebar facility tirelessly to get the rebar ready for each of these jobs.

It was a good week, and these pours were injury free thanks to the hard work of our Safety team and the Conco employee’s commitment to safety on the jobsite. Conco strives to provide its customers with not just the best option but the easiest one. We truly strive to be a one stop shop for our customers and passionately provide a service that has created strong relationships over our 60 years in the industry. With one phone call you can take care of it all.

In late January 2021, The Conco Companies is scheduled to provide a full concrete services package for Chesterfield Apartments, an affordable housing community in south Los Angeles. Services include formwork, reinforcement, concrete pumping, shotcrete, and finishing services. Conco will also install a mat slab foundation at the whole footprint of the lot, shotcrete columns, and walls with board finish.

Chesterfield Apartments will be a 6-story building containing 43 residential affordable units, located near Exposition Park. The residential units will be studios ranging from 400 to 415 square feet, and one will be a 836 square feet, 2-bedroom manager’s unit. Also featured in the building are a common area for onsite property management offices, bicycle storage room, community room, community laundry facilities, and outdoor landscaped areas. These amenities will enhance the living standard for low-income and homeless residents.

This project is developed by Wakeland Housing, managed by RD Olson Construction, and is part of the passed Proposition HHH, a $1.2 Billion bond that was designed to provide help and housing to homeless and low income residents across Los Angeles.

Chesterfield Apartments will be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2022, and is one of Conco’s most recent affordable housing projects.
