AWARD-WINNING PROJECTS
CFA is pleased to announce that we have recently worked on three award-winning projects.
The Willows at Wells Avenue
The Willows at Wells Avenue is a senior housing project located on a 0.67-acre site situated near the northwest corner of Willow Street and Wells Avenue. The project includes a three-story building with 39 units. CFA was responsible for agency approvals, civil engineering, landscape architecture, and surveying. The grand opening was held on February 5, 2008.
This project was awarded the 2008 Governor's Award by the Builders Association of Northern Nevada in the category of Multi-Family Homes. Team members included:
- Owner: Wells Avenue Partners
- Contractor: Pacific West Builders, Inc.
- Architect: Stephen Harriman & Associates
NVANG Air Intelligence Exploitation Facility
CFA provided engineering, surveying, and landscape architectural services for this two-story, 36,150 square foot building for the Nevada Air National Guard, located at the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Site work included demolition, site drainage, grading, and infrastructure distribution systems. All engineering was consistent with base master planning studies. Security for the building was maintained around the site perimeter with proper "standoff" distances, which requires no obstructions. Landscaping was kept very low, with some deciduous trees near the entry and plaza locations. Plantings were taller for screening pumps, backflow units, and other utilities. The landscaping included various options for potential additive bid items at the access road and outlying parking lots. The project was completed in 2008.
The Associated General Contractors selected this project as the recipient of the 2008 Pinnacle Award for projects over $5 million in the category of Excellence in Project Management. Team members included:
- Owner: Nevada Air National Guard
- Contractor: United Construction Company
- Architect: Sheehan Van Woert Bigotti
Mathewson IGT Knowledge Center
CFA provided surveying services for this five-story, 295,000 square foot knowledge center on the campus of the University of Nevada, Reno. The Knowledge Center houses the university's new book-retrieval system, library and information collections, and a campus community center.
The Associated General Contractors selected this project as the recipient of the 2008 Pinnacle Award for projects over $5 million in the category of Meeting the Challenge of a Difficult Job. Team members included:
- Owner: University of Nevada, Reno
- Contractor: Q&D Construction
- Architect: Hershenow & Klippenstein Architects
