Savannah Land Company and The Carson Company hosted an introduction ceremony of the Stephenson Avenue Executive Center on Wednesday, Feb. 11th at 11:00am. The Stephenson Center, located at the corner of Stephenson Ave. and Habersham, is the ideal midtown location for businesses. All media is invited to come to this truly unique event.
As the developers of the Stephenson Center, Savannah Land Company and The Carson Company are proud to do their part and step up to the plate to boost our economy. We all need to take an active part in jumpstarting the economy, states Ernie Friedman, CEO of Savannah Land. The construction of this building provides employment for over 1,000 people, from product and material suppliers to construction contractors and craftsmen. Local involvement includes architects, engineers, builders, sub contractors, developers, site contractors and many others.
Built as tilt-up wall construction, this 40,000 sq. ft. class A office building, designed by Hansen Architects, is yet another ever-present symbol of the developers innovative approach to commercial real estate. In tilt-up construction, its concrete walls are cast on-site and lifted up to their vertical position by a crane. This is a relatively recent type of commercial construction for Savannah. To drive by the site now, all you see are concrete slabs on the ground. But once the crane comes in to raise the cast walls the entire building goes up in 36-48 hours. It makes you look twice and wonder how you never noticed that big building under construction, comments Mary Friedman, Savannah Land Company President.
1st National Bank and Wachovia Securities have leased significant square footage spaces. At this point the Stephenson Center is 50% leased. A number of other potential leasees are strongly considering space. Colliers Neely-Dales Real Estate is the leasing agent for the project and believes its realistic that by the expected opening date of June 30, 2009 the building will be fully leased.
The following companies are involved in bringing The Stephenson Center to reality and our economy back to a healthy state.
The Carson Company, Savannah Land Company, Coastal Bank, First National Bank, Wachovia Securities, Colliers Neely-Dales Real Estate, Hansen Architects, Kern-Coleman Engineers, ARCO, Security Real Estate Services, The Nelson Group, Stevens-Hale and Associates, Foundation Contractors, Jade Steel, Bonitz of Georgia, International Fire Protection, Henry Plumbing, Mock Mechanical, C.S.
