Downtown Portland is slated to welcome a unique new mid-rise hotel in summer of 2020 designed by DLR Group Architecture in partnership with Graves Hospitality and KCB Realty. The 12-story Moxy Hotel in Portland has a small 7,500 square foot building footprint but will encompass 71,232 square feet of interior space. The Moxy Hotel will feature 197 guest rooms and a slew of modern amenities. While the guest rooms boast floor-to-ceiling glass walls with views of Mt. Hood, the ground floor will seamlessly integrate into the surrounding lively Pearl District streets with large operable glass walls, a bar and lounge area, and food carts.

Starting June of 2019, the Conco Companies began providing a variety of commercial concrete services for the Moxy Hotel project. Conco was contracted as a result of a competitive qualified bidder selection process which evaluated their past experience, skilled teams, their record of safety on projects, competitive cost, and overall approach to the project. Additionally, given their reputation for solving the challenges presented by any size project, Conco is well equipped to overcome the obstacles that come with downtown construction and a constrained job site. For their part, Conco will provide concrete pumping, concrete reinforcement, concrete formwork, and shotcrete services.

The city of Denver has long been a popular travel destination and will now host the luxury hotel chain Thompson Hotels on the dynamic 16th Street Mall in downtown. The Thompson Denver will sit at 16th and Market Street and the project is slated for completion in October 2020. Thompson Hotels is known for its upscale amenities located in popular metropolitan and tourism hubs across North America such as New York City, Chicago, Seattle, Toronto, Cabo San Lucas,
and Playa del Carmen. The Mile High City is a natural addition to their roster of hotel sites and the 13-story Thompson Hotel project will be an exciting new feature of Denver’s hospitality offerings.

T2 Development awarded the contract for concrete services to The Conco Companies due to their expertise in the preconstruction, planning, and VE stages of project development, where Conco’s efforts and availability throughout the bidding process fostered strong working relationships with the design team, general contractor, and development team. For their part of the Thompson Hotel project, Conco will be providing concrete pumping and placing, formwork, concrete reinforcement, concrete finishing, and shotcrete services as well as construction trucking. The scope of work includes drilled pier foundations, pier caps and grade beams, mat foundations, slab on grade, shotcrete foundation walls, elevator core walls in two locations, and elevated post-tensioned structural slabs.

Downtown Denver is slated to receive two new high-end multi-family residential buildings in the Healthcare District with construction beginning in July 2019. The Broadstone Uptown project will feature two nine-story structures with studio, one bedroom, and two bedroom apartments as well as below-grade parking for each building. Designed by Shear Adkins Rockmore Architects, the nearly identical buildings will sit adjacent to each other on the corner of 18th and Marion Streets and will bring much needed residential units to the growing city.

The Conco Companies worked closely with the development teams for over a year during the planning phase of the Broadstone Uptown project and has been contracted to provide a range of concrete services for the two structures beginning in July 2019. The scope of work for Conco’s turnkey structural concrete services include mat slab foundations, slab on grade, shotcrete foundation walls, cast-in-place columns, elevator and stair core walls in two locations in each building, elevated post-tensioned structural slabs and Epicore topping slabs for the cast-in-place rooftop slabs. Conco will be partnering with a local subcontractor to provide concrete pumping and placing, reinforcing, formwork, and finishing as well as construction trucking.
