For the final part of our three part series, we decided to see what our fellow employees' favorite projects were. There were several similarities between employees but each had a different reason why it is their favorite.
What has your favorite project been thus far? Why?
The Red Cross building because I’ve been able to see it go up every day since it is right outside of our office at Keystone Parke.
-Eden McDermott
Keystone Parke. Being part of a team that built the first “green campus” in the area was very rewarding. I was also very involved in many of the office selections for the Neyer Properties tenant finish.
-Tracy Russell
The Thanksgiving Food from the Heart Drive [with St. Vincent De Paul]. Because of its success last year, Neyer put two food barrels out this year, one at Red Bank Crossing and one Keystone Parke I. Thanks to our tenants and Neyer employees we filled both barrels. It was touching to see everyone working together to help out people in need. I have been told by several professionals that Dan has a good head on his shoulders and a big heart as well.
-Sally Hauser
I love the glass façade of the Beechmont Racquet Club. The owner wanted not only a “racquet” club but there are additional office spaces for tenants. The Design Center is additionally a unique building with colors of red, yellow and blue incorporated in the outside design. It’s very colorful exterior is easy to see off of I-71. Another is the redevelopment of the Working In Neighborhood office in South Cumminsville. An older Catholic Church converted to office space without destroying the integrity and character of the interior; beautiful painted glass windows, the thick massive woodwork, and the overhead Rosetta window.
-Nancy McCune
The purchase of Ross and Section [Central Pointe on the Lateral]. It is our first Clean Ohio project and therefore has been a great learning experience for me. Another part of this project I enjoy is the future planning of the additional acreage to the south. It is exciting to see all of the moving parts come together.
-Jared Wendling
Keystone Parke because although it is a big, complicated and often difficult project to move forward it has the biggest potential impact on the community of all projects I have worked on.
-Jeff Chamot
I have enjoyed the development of the American Red Cross Headquarters and Disaster Operations center the most, since it is such a unique facility and a unique challenging site. It has served as many stakeholders as any project that we have completed (all of which had differing interests and needs), it is on target for LEED Gold, and it is for an incredible organization.
