Clark on Franklin | Renovation Project
Welcome to the first edition of Inside Scoop – Clark on Franklin Renovation. My name is Nick Novakoski and I am the Assistant Project Manager overseeing the project along with Field Manager EJ Calloway. On August 27th, Elzinga & Volkers began work on the Clark on Franklin Renovation and Exterior Improvements. The project is slated to be complete by the end of September, 2019. The renovation consists of 5 phases ranging from minor interior updates all the way to a complete demolition of the 2nd floor and 3rd floor west wing to make way for 22 new independent living apartments, 12 of which will have balconies to the outside. On the exterior we will make room for a new 12 stall garage that will take the place of the old carport on the west end of the building. Out front, a new 18 space pre-engineered carport will be constructed along with a brand new entrance made out of stone and block to give the north side of the building a face lift. Over the last month, the first phase of the renovation, 3rd Floor East Aldersgate Skilled Nursing (3 East SN), has been tracking right on schedule. The construction team completed demolition, plumbing and electrical work needed to service the newly added resident room and office, as well as the pantry reconfiguration. New drywall, paint and flooring have also been installed to give the space a refreshed look. This first phase is scheduled to be turned over to Clark on November 6th, with residents moving back in on the 6th, 7th and 8th. On the exterior, the team continued to battle the elements and wet conditions while building the new 12 stall garage. The masons have worked diligently to get the block structure in place and ready for the trusses to arrive this week. Once the trusses are set the team will begin work on the roofing components to completely dry in the garage. Stay tuned for next months update!
