Big projects come with big milestones, and when the dust settles, there’s a well-earned sense of accomplishment—and plenty of recognition to go around. Owners, architects, and general contractors get their well-deserved credit, but many others stand just outside the spotlight.
Today, I want to recognize the hands that brought an important part of this project to life — the men and women of my team and our suppliers. Unlike the trades whose work forms the skeleton of the building and gets covered over, ours remains on full display. In that, we are lucky. My team knows firsthand that it takes a network of calm, capable experts to bring the design to life, often in less-than-ideal conditions. Their adaptability, precision, and craftsmanship are the hands to the designer’s vision.
So here are some of the people who i’d like to recognize for their contributions to this landmark project, with appologies to the many other who also helped:
Dean Attrill, Manny Baker, Treydon Baker, Torben Becker, Andrei Biely, Wayne Bolzan, Richard Brown, Ben Creamer, Jack Van Domselaar, Manuel Duarte, Will Duggan, Cal Florence, Derek Joseph, Adam Kerrigan, Ryan Leask, Maria Lemos, Neil Martin, Murray Menard, Tony Mettes, Mark Mirsaidi, Rene Monserate, Matt Mumford, Dan Philips, Rob Price, Matt Price, Jody Raines, Chris Riddle, Alejandro Sanchez, Danielle Smith, Jay Timothy, Emil Wessner, Cassey Wilson. Thank you all for your commitment and hard work. What a great result!
