Pumping Archives | The Conco Companies

The Conco Companies has completed its concrete services to convert 8899 Beverly Blvd, a former 10-story office building located near Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, into a building with 40 luxury condo units and two high-end penthouses on the upper floors. The project was designed by Olsen Kundig Architects, managed by Pankow, and developed by Townscape Partners.

Conco’s portion of the project consisted of a major structural retrofit and additions to the building. The retrofit included enhancement of existing shear walls, columns, and beams from the basement up the 8th floor. The building additions were interior column enhancements and 24”-thick shear walls.

Conco crews worked long hours for 8 months to successfully shotcrete 3,700 cubic yards in extreme reinforced conditions, and pump 18,000 cubic yards for the structural concrete work needed by our long-standing client. The project logistics were another challenge that Conco crews were able to effectively coordinate under a high-pace schedule.

8899 Beverly is nearing completion, with Conco’s partners putting the final touches on the building. The Conco Companies is proud to have worked with its partners on this remarkable project.
