A&P Celebrates Topping Out of Forest Park Medical Center Southlake Medical Office Building

Saturday, April 5th, 2014


Richardson, TX (PRWEB) March 20, 2014

On Wednesday morning, March 19, a Topping Out Ceremony was held at the site of the new Forest Park Medical Center Southlake Medical Office Building, signifying that the final height of the new building has been reached.

The project, developed by LandPlan Development and Neal Richards Group, is situated on a 2.645 acre site, adjoining the existing Forest Park Medical Center in Southlake.

The medical office building is a 4-story, 88,159 square foot building, including a grand entrance atrium, elevator core, and shell space for future clinic tenants. The new medical office building was designed by GSR Andrade to maximize the aesthetic balance of the campus by utilizing a stone veneer which matches the existing hospitals exterior finish (see attached rendering).

A two-story enclosed connector joins the new MOB with the existing Forest Park Medical Center Southlake hospital, completed by Adolfson & Peterson (A&P) in April 2013.

LandPlan Developments Director Reed Williams helped to provide the context for this event: Everything that we build here today is a lasting monument to healing that is going to touch and impact the lives of patients for generations to come. This isnt a 10 year or 20 year building; this is a 50 or 100 year building thats made to last.

With the construction of the Southlake MOB facility, A&P proudly continues its strong partnership with Forest Park Medical Center, LandPlan Development Corporation, and Neal Richards Group. Over the past six years, A&P has partnered with Forest Park Medical Center on multiple projects including Forest Park Medical Center Dallas, Forest Park Medical Center Southlake and Forest Park Medical Center Austin. In all, A&P has partnered with FPMC to build nearly one million square feet of hospitals and medical office space throughout Texas.

The FPMC Southlake MOB project is scheduled to be completed in August of 2014.

Preferred Realty Celebrates 25th Anniversary

Friday, February 21st, 2014


Hendersonville, NC (PRWEB) January 14, 2014

Preferred Realty, a Hendersonville-based real estate agency specializing in residential properties, is celebrating its 25th anniversary in the real estate business. When the agency opened in 1988, it had six owners. This was the only company of its kind in Henderson County and one of very few in North Carolina.

Unlike the franchised companies, Preferred Realty is owned and operated by member agents. They started with a concept that was entirely new to the real estate world – a privately held company that shared goals and ideas openly and freely.

The concept began with a group of like-minded realtors having a common goal of bettering services for buyers and sellers alike, said Jim Phelan, Broker-In-Charge of Preferred Realty, who has been with the company since 1999. The business concept has proven successful by an individual’s success becoming the groups success. Since the opening, the owners may have changed, but the ideals, concepts, and even the location on which the company was founded, have not.

Mr. Phelan went on to credit the member agents knowledge, experience, and superior ability as reasons the company has remained strong, both over the course of its 25-year history and in the face of the economic downturn of recent years. Mr. Phelan also expressed his confidence in the agencys future.

I am extremely proud of our team of professional and experienced realtors. Hendersonville, NC residents and community organizations have also been extremely supportive, and were looking forward to celebrating with everyone again when we reach the 50 year anniversary, Mr. Phelan added.

Preferred Realty is located at 227 7th Ave E, Hendersonville, NC, 28792-3755 and is always looking for experienced agents to join their growing company. For more information about the agency, real estate topics, or listings of current homes for sale, Hendersonville, NC area residents and agents are encouraged to visit prefhomesnc.com or call (828) 696-9900.

About Preferred Realty

Preferred Realty was founded in 1988 by realtors looking to work closely with the community of Hendersonville, NC. Since then, the company has grown and thrived without sacrificing its commitment to the local area. All brokers are fully licensed and hand-picked for their years of experience and practical knowledge. Many members have served on the Hendersonville Board of Realtors, and three members have been named Realtor of the Year in the course of the agencys 25-year history.

Stop & Stor Celebrates 25 Years of Providing Self Storage Services to NYC This Month

Saturday, February 1st, 2014


New York, NY (PRWEB) December 18, 2013

More than two decades ago, two families in the real estate business sensed a need in our community. Twenty-five years later their business acumen and commitment to providing a necessary and affordable self -storage service has enabled them to grow a business with over 70 employees, 15 locations, and all anchored on Staten Island through its corporate offices located in Willowbrook.

Stop & Stor is pleased to announce that this month they are celebrating their 25th year anniversary.

As professionals in the real estate industry, the Henick and Simon families witnessed the growth of Staten Islands communities and interacted with the many families looking to build their home and their future here. This experience naturally translated into forming a family-owned partnership – Stop & Stor assisting our community and beyond with a service needed by a growing borough.

As the company grew the principals of Stop & Stor – Ken Henick and his son, Jeff, along with Morty Simon and his son, Neil, – had a vision of the type of service they wanted to provide to their customers leading them to open up self storage facilities that were drive through; affordable; clean; and equipped with uniformed and professional staff.

Stop & Stors first storage facility at 780 Gulf Avenue in the West Shore section of Staten Island is still operational (opened in November of 1988) and was the first outdoor storage facility in New York City. From day one, Jeff Henick was responsible for operations of this Staten Island storage location, and now 25 years later, is Chief Operating Officer responsible for close to 18,000 customers.

Jeff Henick has a philosophy: Offer a superior product, quality service, with professional and courteous employees. I enjoy giving our customers the very best in the self-storage industry. Plain and simple, We Care about our customers. Jeffs philosophy and leadership has contributed to Stop & Stors reputation as New Yorks Self Storage Leader.

Every day Stop & Stor delivers on a basic need extra space! From the basic move from one house to another, to the downsizing during the golden years, to fellow business owners who just need to store and secure their records, we provide an option an affordable, clean, and secure one, said Neil Simon.

Providing a quality self storage service is just one piece of the companys fabric at Stop & Stor. Being part of a community and setting an example of leadership giving is essential to Stop & Stors operating philosophy. Through the Stop & Stor Charitable Fund, the company has given back to every neighborhood where it does business. The fund supports a diverse range of organizations with a major focus on education, arts and culture, community development, humanitarian, government, animal protection, beautification of parks, and medical research.

The fund has given over 1.5 million dollars in donations since it began in 2002. Examples of the type of organizations the company has donated to are: Fund for Public Schools, all N.Y.C. Public Libraries, Wounded Warrior Project, Lincoln Center, Metropolitan Museum of Art, City Harvest, Doctors Without Borders, AmeriCares, Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the Wildlife Conservation Society, A Very Special Place, and the Boy Scouts of America. The Stop & Stor Charitable Fund also responds swiftly to crises and natural disasters across Staten Island and across the world. The fund is currently in the process of identifying an organization to support that is helping the victims of the recent typhoon in the Philippines.

Some of the Staten Island charities supported by Stop & Stor are: Adopt A Highway, American Cancer Society (Staten Island Chapter), A Very Special Place, College of Staten Island Center for the Arts, Foundation For the Advancement of Autistic Persons, Meals On Wheels of Staten Island, National Lighthouse Museum, Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanic Garden, Staten Island Ballet, Staten Island Community Services, Staten Island Museum, Staten Island Project Homefront, and Staten Island Childrens Museum.

Incidentally, the Staten Island Division of the Boy Scouts honored Jeff Henick at an event this month for the support the organization has received from Stop & Stor.

Although Stop & Stors roots are in Staten Island, it has branched out and now has self storage facilities in all of New York Citys boroughs including self storage units in Brooklyn, Staten Island, Bronx, and Queens with the exception of Manhattan.

DuPont Celebrates Solar Power Project in Newport

Wednesday, January 22nd, 2014


Wilmington, DE (PRWEB) December 06, 2013

DuPont today hosted a celebration of the startup of a 548 kilowatt, five-acre solar installation on a former Superfund landfill site in Newport, Del. The solar installation, located at 205 South James Street, Newport, Del., will produce enough electricity to power 60 homes in the Newport community. It will generate about 729,000 kilowatt hours of power per year.

After successfully completing remediation at the Newport site, and with the support of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Delaware Division of Natural Resources & Environmental Control (DNREC), DuPont collaborated with Tangent Energy Solutions to put the property into productive use generating solar electricity. The solar project, developed by Tangent and owned by Greenwood Energy, a subsidiary of Libra Group, will provide a viable renewable energy option for the Newport community. The solar panels were supplied by DuPont Apollo, a wholly-owned subsidiary of DuPont.

The celebration event included a program that was conducted at the nearby DuPont Photovoltaics Applications Lab in Wilmington, Del. The Honorable Jack Markell, governor State of Delaware, headlined a group of speakers who provided comments during the program. Other speakers included: Shawn Garvin, regional administrator EPA Mid-Atlantic Region 3; and Linda Fisher, vice president DuPont Safety, Health & Environment & Chief Sustainability Officer.

The DuPont Solar Power Project complements Delawares commitment toward using clean, renewable energy sources, Markell said. Generating solar energy benefits the residents of Newport, and positively impacts our state – increasing our competitiveness, reducing air pollution, improving public health and creating jobs.

Under the RE-Powering America Initiative, EPA encourages renewable energy development on current and formerly contaminated land when it is aligned with the communitys vision for the site, Garvin said. When we work together to turn an environmental problem into an opportunity, we create the best of what is possible here solar energy will serve the families of Newport and inspire others to re-power America with alternative energy solutions.

Were very excited about this project because it is the first time weve utilized solar on a former landfill. The project will reduce DuPonts greenhouse gas emissions by 350 tons a year and reuse a portion of a federal Superfund site that had been considered to be unusable land, said Fisher. This is a great example of what were trying to do at DuPont around the world: working collaboratively to help meet the growing demand for energy with renewable fuels.

Other guests who participated in the program included Collin OMara, secretary Delaware Division of Natural Resources & Environmental Control; Rep. Debra Heffernan, Rep. John Kowalko Jr., Michael Spencer, mayor Town of Newport, and various leaders with the DuPont Corporate Remediation Group, DuPont Facilities Services & Real Estate and DuPont Photovoltaic Solutions Business.

This represents the eleventh solar installation on DuPont land to date, and the fourth in Delaware. Two additional installations are expected to be completed by year-end, bringing the total energy output to 4,800,000 kilowatt hours per year enough to power 400 U.S. households. In addition to its DuPont Apollo subsidiary, which specializes in silicon-based thin film solar technologies, DuPont is the largest supplier of specialty materials to the solar industry. Over half the worlds 400 million solar panels have DuPont materials in them.

DuPont (NYSE: DD) has been bringing world-class science and engineering to the global marketplace in the form of innovative products, materials, and services since 1802. The company believes that by collaborating with customers, governments, NGOs, and thought leaders we can help find solutions to such global challenges as providing enough healthy food for people everywhere, decreasing dependence on fossil fuels, and protecting life and the environment.
