This multi-year shopping center renovation project included the demolition of a vacant Kmart to make way for a new Giant grocery store and a Five Below store, fully constructed by Ames Construction, Inc. The center had a Giant in an existing location, and after the new Giant was built Ames renovated the old space for multiple new tenants. Ames Construction also demolished a small Rita’s Ice building and built the shell for the brand new PJ Whelihan’s restaurant in that location. We later fit out the new Rita’s Ice in another section of the center. Facade renovations and landlord work was performed on multiple buildings throughout the center, and Ames Construction also fit-out projects for Hallmark and Marshalls/HomeGoods
The center remained open throughout the entire renovation timeline, which required a builder who was able to do the work efficiently in order to meet the deadlines of multiple tenants, and more importantly required that things were done safely, protecting both customers and employees as they accessed stores.

I chose Ames Construction to build my one-of-a-kind, three-story, medical office building because of their reputation as builders and their personable approach to the bidding process. I was confident that we would be able to work through the inevitable challenges of commercial construction and that proved to be true. They were honest and straight forward. We faced many challenges including a shutdown from COVID-19, but they always stood behind their work and proved to be a valuable partner in the project. I am grateful for the team at Ames, from the ownership to the project manager and site superintendent, as well as the trade partners. I would gladly recommend them to anyone considering a commercial construction project. I couldn’t be happier with the results of my beautiful new facility!
