Nason Construction has been working with
Sallie Mae since 2008 on a series of multiple
projects, such as:
Corporate Headquarters Fit-Out, Phases 1-7
In January 2011, Nason began a $10 million, 17
month fit-out of 150,000 sf; completed in seven
phases, in an occupied building.
Exterior Façade Renovation
In 2011, the award winning, $7.3 million
Exterior Façade renovation commenced. The
new, large windows not only make the
building look inviting, but add an increase in
natural light for guests and employees.
Landscaping & Pond Renovations
In Spring 2013, Nason began the renovation of
Sallie Mae’s employee common space, creating
a new outdoor seating and dining area
adjacent to their new cafeteria, and a serene
pond with surrounding boardwalk for
employees to enjoy.
Other projects include:
Executive Office Suite renovations
Reconfigure Open Floor Work Spaces
Lobby renovations
Cafeteria renovation & expansion
Fitness Center renovation
Elevator modernization
Board Room & Conference Rooms
Stair Tower renovations
Parking Lot expansions
Bathroom upgrades
Mailroom renovations
Credit Operations Center Office fit-out
and renovation
“We are extremely happy with our totally
renovated space and it has made a huge
difference in our service to our customers.”
- Paul Smith, Director of Facilities
Nason Construction provided general
contracting services for a 94,000 square foot
warehouse expansion for Bodek and Rhodes
at their corporate headquarters in Northeast
Philadelphia. Bodek and Rhodes is an active
wear clothing wholesaler with five
warehouses nationwide.
This $8.4 million project consists of the
addition of a pre-engineered building with
10-foot-high masonry walls.
Nason Construction provided construction management services for this new 132,000 square
foot corporate office and distribution facility. The facility includes cooler and freezer areas as
well as ambient storage and 12,400 square feet of office space.
The building is constructed with concrete tilt-up exterior wall panels to satisfy both budget and
scheduling restraints. The use of tilt-up enabled the entrance facade of the office area to be
curved, highlighting the building’s entrance and providing a counterpoint to the rectangular
mass of the building. Forms were used to provide a “dished” surface upon which to pour the
curved panels.
The refrigerated warehouse is used for storage of Dunkin’ Donuts dough that is distributed from
22 truck docks to regional retail stores.
Nason Construction is currently working on
our fifth project with Campbell Soup
Company at their World Headquarters in
Camden, NJ. Our relationship spans a
program of multiple projects. Highlighted
below are some of those projects.
World Headquarters Renovation,
Phases 1 & 2
Nason Construction originally provided
general contracting services for the first two
phases of the World Headquarters renovation.
Completed in February 2011, the first phase
included the installation of all IT equipment.
The second phase, completed in June 2012,
involved the complete renovation of 68,000 sf
of administrative space at the Headquarters’
main building.
The retrofit included selective demolition and
interior fit-out with high-end corporate office
finishes and extensive mechanical and
electrical upgrades. The building remained
fully occupied during the renovation.
World Headquarters, Building 70
Renovations
Nason provided general contracting services
for Campbell Soup’s Building 70 interior
renovations, which was the first venture
between Campbell’s and Nason. The scope of
the project included demolition of a portion of
the existing Day Care and build-out of new
space and meeting rooms, as well as a new
HVAC system and skylight installations. Work
was completed during the night shift hours to
allow the Day Care and office operations to
continue without interruption.
The Nason construction team successfully
coordinated construction activities within the
occupied building and with the furniture
assembly crews to allow on-time move-in to
the renovated space.
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.
Excellence in Construction, ABC Eastern
Shore
Nason Construction was selected as the
Construction Manager for a new $7.6 million
two-story, 23,000 square foot oncology center
and a post-tension parking garage which was
completed in phases to better accommodate
hospital staff and patients.
Working closely with The SmithGroup,
preconstruction services included identifying
value engineering alternatives, conducting
constructability analysis, and developing cost
budgets and project schedules.
The steel-framed and brick veneer facility
features a reflective glass curtain wall radius
along the west side offering spectacular views
of the Nanticoke River and
high-end finishes throughout the physician
offices. The facility accommodates cancer
treatment areas and a linear accelerator which
consists of one foot thick concrete walls and
floor slab to ensure radiation containment.
Project challenges included constructing the
facility only 20 feet from the banks of the river
and directly in front of an existing professional
building, as well as extensive weather delays
with record-breaking rainfall throughout the
construction of this project.
Despite the challenges, the project was
delivered $592,000 under budget.
