Overview
Regency needed to clear a small forest, draw new gas and electric lines, and install a massive septic system and new wells. Then drainage and cement work could begin. Meanwhile, two crews of building movers used hydraulic lifts to raise the entire building by 10 feet, and a team of steel erectors shored up the structure. Water, HVAC (including 213 tons of AC), gas, electric, phone, alarm and bell systems were installed, as was a large commercial kitchen.
On September 1, 2012, Regency’s team took pride in watching the school buses loaded with excited school children rolling onto the freshly paved lot. The transformation was complete. On time, on budget.
