"I WOULD ENTHUSIASTICALLY RECOMMEND NASON
CONSTRUCTION FOR FUTURE PROJECTS. NASON'S ABILITY
TO LEAD, LISTEN, AND WORK COLLABORATIVELY WAS A
TESTAMENT TO NASON'S CORE VALUE."
- Dennis Groom, Director
Division of Facilities Management, The State of Delaware
Sample Retail Project Experience
Nason Construction, Inc. previously provided
preconstruction services for a new BMW and a
new Cadillac dealership. Value engineering
alternatives identified by the NASON Team
reduced construction costs by over $1 million.
The two dealerships are be co-located on a 24-
acre parcel in Mount Laurel, New Jersey.
Extensive site development was required,
including extension of all utilities as well as
grading with cuts and fills.
The BMW dealership showroom boasts high-
end finishes throughout, including imported
tile from Germany in the 40-bay service center.
The building facade consisting of a glass
curtain wall is accented with flat metal panels
that are consistent with BMW’s image.
The Cadillac dealership features a limestone
veneer facade and also boasts a high-end
interior and accommodates 40 bays in the
service center.
Nason Construction was awarded general
contracting services for an addition and
renovation of Welsh Subaru of Limerick.
This project included demolition of the
existing parts department, construction of new
maintenance bays, new parts department, and
expanded sales area. The renovations
consisted of upgrades to electrical, HVAC and
plumbing systems, exterior walls, and
landscaping.
Nason Construction provided construction
management services for a $6.7 million, 65,000
square foot renovation project completed in
four phases in an occupied building.
The project consisted of major facade
renovations, installation of a glass curtain wall
entrance, and complete window replacement.
Interior renovations included fit-out of typical
office space, conference rooms, and a full
service fitness and exercise facility with men’s
and women’s locker rooms.
The new Operations Center for Subaru of
America was completed with no disruption to
the staff.
Nason Construction completed four branch
locations throughout the region for
Commerce Bank. Below are highlights of
those projects.
Chadds Ford, PA
Completed in December 2001, Nason
provided New Construction of this branch
bank, which was unique in that the stone
facade was reminiscent of the many historic
structures in the community. The project was
completed on time and on budget.
Churchman’s Corner, New Castle, DE
Nason Construction provided general
contracting services for this prototype branch
in 2000. The building was completed within a
14-week schedule, and included construction
of the building as well as the site work. The
bank features four-lane side drive through
tellers, vault, interior tellers, and customer
service area
Marsh & Naamans Road, Wilmington, DE
Nason built the first Commerce Branch Bank
in Delaware in a record forty-seven days in
1999. Demolition of an existing building and
site work had to be completed before
construction could begin. Several challenges
were overcome during the construction
process, including weather conditions,
unsuitable soil, and the discovery of
Wilmington “blue rock.” These challenges
were successfully met, and the project was
completed on schedule.
Point Pleasant, NJ
Nason Construction provided general
contracting services for this prototype branch
in 1998. The building was completed within a
14-week schedule, and included construction
of the building as well as the site work. The
bank features four-lane side drive through
tellers, vault, interior tellers, and customer
service area
Nason Construction was selected to provide
general construction services for a $1.4
million addition and renovation to the
existing Boeing Helicopters Credit Union
facility.
The addition will entail construction of a
high-tech facade to complement the style of
the larger Boeing facility. Upgrades to the
existing building and entryway facade will be
performed to match the addition.
Due to its proximity to the Delaware River,
the complex foundation for the addition
consists of 45-foot-deep wood piles, with
concrete grade beams and a structural
concrete floor slab.
Thoughtful scheduling and phasing
coordination by the Nason team will ensure
this bank facility remains operational six days
a week throughout construction.
