Project Cost: $300 million

The Conco Companies recently provided concrete services for Ten Thousand, a very luxurious residential tower that is on track to become one of the area’s iconic architectural landmarks. Named for its street address, 10000 Santa Monica Boulevard, the recently opened 483-foot, 40-story apartment tower is located in Century City at the border of Beverly Hills. The project was the creation of Crescent Heights, a real estate development company based in Miami Beach, Florida. The architect was Handel Architects and the interior design was done by Shamir Shah Design. The general contractor was Swinerton Builders.

According to the architects, the building’s angular glass-sheathed facade was inspired by the work of 20^th-century modernists and seamlessly and elegantly intertwines the indoors to the outdoors. The exterior’s multiple panes of glass are slightly angled away from one another to refract sunlight during the day and transform the tower into an illuminated beacon at night.

The tower’s sloping roofline stands out in sharp contrast to the surrounding flat-roofed buildings, and balconies create sharp angles along the north and south facades. The building offers an on-site garage, 75,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenities including an indoor and outdoor pool, and a house staff of 60 to carry out the 5-Star hotel-style services. Ten Thousand offers a sustainable living environment, and is LEED Gold certified by the U.S. Green Building Council.

Placed 77,400 Cu. Yds. of concrete (ready-mix supplied by Stoneway)
Shipped and placed 13,700,00 lbs. of rebar (installed by RPM)
Shipped and placed 1,450,000 lbs of post-tension cables (installed by RPM) – that’s more than 450 miles of cable.

Designed from the beginning to support the demanding needs of leading tech companies, the energy-efficient property supports high burst networking speeds and heavy data transfer requirements. Southport’s beautiful office space boasts large, efficient floor plans that range from 18,000 to 36,900 rentable Sq. Ft. with 12’ 4” ceiling and feature 9’ window heights.

Parking Structure and Office Space for Southport on Lake Washington Development

The Conco Companies are providing concrete services for a 40-story apartment building at 970 Denny Way that is located in the South Lake Union neighborhood in Seattle, Washington. The redevelopment project is from the Holland Partner Group and is a mix of both modern and classic architectural styles. The building is scheduled to be ready for its first occupants by the summer of 2018 and anticipates receiving LEED Silver certification.

On July 23, 2016, Conco successfully poured 4,900 cubic yards of concrete to form the 15,300 square foot mat foundation. In addition to the concrete, the foundation required 1.3 million pounds of rebar. The pour was done over approximately 15 hours and the concrete was supplied by CalPortland.

This February (2017), we poured to L3 (of a 40 story + roof levels tower) and are now in our typical cycle of pouring the PT decks and core on the same day. This is only achievable with a self-climbing core formwork system.

Once it is completed, the project will consist of 468 apartments as well as 15,580 square feet of retail and 4 levels of sub-grade parking. The retail space as well as a six-story podium features a brick exterior with steel canopies designed to symbolize the area’s industrial past. The tower’s curtain wall is designed almost entirely of tinted glass in tones of blue, grey and silver-white.
