The Conco Companies is returning to Seattle-Tacoma (Sea-Tac) Airport once again teaming up with Clark Construction. Conco’s Northwest division will provide concrete services to build the 450,000 sq. ft. International Arrivals Facility (IAF) building on the east side of the South Terminal Expansion (Concourse A). The new Arrivals facility will help the airport manage the increasing demand for international flights. The project also includes a 900 ft long aerial passing bridge over the existing taxi lane at a height of 85 feet (allowing planes to travel beneath) to connect arriving international passengers at the south satellite terminal to the top of Concourse A and the new space.

The aerial bridge components will be prefabricated off-site and installed within a seven-day time frame. The construction activities are taking place in an active area of the airport, requiring an additional level of coordination – and patience – for all involved. Upcoming project milestones include (all scheduled to be complete by the end of February):

PW-1 Concourse A Concrete Core Bridge Support Completion
IAF Slab on Grade Completion
PW-4 South Satellite Concrete Core Bridge Support Completion

For the 1532 Harrison Street development, Conco is providing a wide range of concrete services including concrete pumping, formwork, finishing, and shotcrete services. The project of three, seven-story buildings connected by a single level below grade parking structure is expected to ready for residents in March 2019. Conco is also excited to partner with BAR Architects and Macy Architecture, who was recently honored with a 2016 AIACC Residential Award. The project’s developer, Build, Inc., was recently named the 2018 Developer To Watch by San Francisco Business Journal.

The development in the West SoMa neighborhood includes three buildings which will collectively house 136 mixed-use units, including 22 below market rate units. The site will feature 1,600 sq.ft. of ground level retail space, and the underground garage will have 85 parking spaces as well as 137 bicycle parking spaces.

Across the street is Eagle Plaza, a permanent public plaza and green space. The proximity of this space added complexity to this project for Conco and architects, who aimed to ensure that the green space be maintained and fit with the new development. During the course of the project, Conco expects to place 4,100 cubic yards of concrete as well as shotcrete.

Conco’s responsibilities on the Jewish Home of San Francisco include providing concrete pumping, reinforcement, formwork, finishing, and shotcrete services as well as construction trucking. The new Jewish Home community broke ground in the fall of 2016 and is expected to be completed in late 2018.

The $140 million, 270,000 sq. ft. new construction with 76 memory care and 114 assisted living residential units will dramatically expand the Jewish Homes facilities and service reach. Since first opening in 1891 with a dozen residents, the Jewish Home of San Francisco has worked to help older adults live, grow and flourish in the community. Incorporating the understanding that overall wellness can only be achieved when seniors’ social and emotional needs are met in addition to physical ones, architect Ankrom Moisan helped the Jewish Home translate their vision into a campus design that promotes life-long learning, engagement with nature, and independence.

During construction, Conco anticipates placing 19,000 cubic yards of concrete as well as shotcrete. The new building is slated to combine existing landscape areas into a series of three large parks that will revitalize the community and set the stage for a resort-like experience for residents. The project also includes a new auditorium, fitness areas, and art and library spaces.
