Since August 2020, The Conco Companies has been providing full concrete services for the new Cedar Sinai Medical Center on Hillhurst Avenue, in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles. The services provided include shotcrete, concrete pumping, place and finish, rebar, and formwork.

When completed, the medical center will cover an 11,000 square-feet footprint, and introduce a 3-story building for a total of 51,000 square feet of covered area—with three levels below-grade parking.

This project’s build is accompanied by logistical struggles that Conco is equipped to overcome. In particular, there is only one-sided access to the project site, with an excavation that is over 35-feet deep. The roadside access is also beset with overhead utility and electrical lines, making the incorporation of concrete and other construction materials into the project a feat.

Conco and the general contractor, Pankow, strategized the work sequence for maximum effectiveness in a tiny footprint. Construction is expected to stay on course throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and be completed in May 2021.

Developed by Wakeland Housing and managed by RD Olson Construction, the Amani Apartments is scheduled to finish construction by the second quarter of 2022. It will replace a vacant lot with a 5-story building of 54 affordable residential units. Conco will place over 1,000 cubic yards of concrete, with a total of 10,000 square feet of Slab-on-Grade, and a suspended deck.

Each residential unit will be a studio ranging from 393 to 424 square feet, with one unit being 875 square feet. The building features shotcrete columns and walls with board finish, and includes property management offices, community laundry facilities, a common room, an observation deck, and outdoor courtyards.

The new affordable housing community will be located near the historic Victoria Park, at Pico and Crenshaw Boulevards. It is part of Proposition HHH, a $1.2 Billion bond that provides help and housing to homeless and low income residents across Los Angeles, and is one of several Los Angeles affordable housing projects that have chosen Conco for concrete services.

Chesterfield Apartments will be a 6-story building containing 43 residential affordable units, located near Exposition Park. The residential units will be studios ranging from 400 to 415 square feet, and one will be a 836 square feet, 2-bedroom manager’s unit. Also featured in the building are a common area for onsite property management offices, bicycle storage room, community room, community laundry facilities, and outdoor landscaped areas.
