The Epic Tower Project
Project Rendering from Hudson Pacific Properties
The Conco Companies is providing a variety of concrete services for the new 13 story Epic Tower in Hollywood on Sunset Blvd. The project is being developed by owner Hudson Pacific Properties and was designed by Gensler architects, who also recently collaborated on the nearby ICON tower. The general contractor is Hathaway Dinwiddie Construction Company and the structural engineer is Nabih-Yousef and Associates.
The project is a 280,000 Sq. Ft. office tower with 18,400 Sq. Ft of new retail space. The building also includes 27,000 Sq. Ft. of inspiring landscaped terraces, providing a seamless transition to outside workspaces through tall glass walls that overlook the city of Los Angeles. The project is targeting a LEED Gold certification, incorporating bike-parking, a fitness center as well as a ‘landing pad’ for drones.
Conco was selected for this project because of our experience and commitment to high quality planning and execution on complex projects. With Conco’s expertise, the Epic Tower will be the first building in Los Angeles to feature 15 foot, low-profile concrete ceilings. Conco began work on the high-profile project in December of 2017 and completion is anticipated for March 2019. This timeline reflects the challenges of working in a growing neighborhood with high-traffic volume limiting site access and work hours. Conco is providing concrete finishing, concrete pumping, concrete formwork, and shotcrete services for the Epic Tower.
Conco is one of the foremost suppliers of concrete services for the Western U.S. We got our start in 1959 in the Bay Area by offering clients the best value on a broad range of concrete services and products. Since that time, we have taken a leading role as top concrete contractors in the region. We have regional offices serving California, Oregon, Nevada, Colorado and Washington.
