Attendees included representatives from Wilson Meany (client/owner), David BakerArchitects (architect), Stockbridge and Ulilico (Wilson Meany’s partners), DCI Engineers (structural engineer), Treasure Island Development Agency, andTreasure Island Development Group. Everyone enjoyed freshly made sides and grilled brisket from Interstate Concrete Pumping’s BBQ crew and Webcor ConcreteSr. Construction Manager Dennis Heimer while listening to several team leaders share thoughtful speeches about the project’s progress and impact:

·     Linsey Perlov and Alex Monaghan, Wilson Meany project managers, gave a brief overview of Treasure Island’s history and thanked the team for the immense amount of work that’s been invested in Isle House's progress within such a brief timeframe. They also stressed how fortunate we are to work in an industry that allows us to point directly to the final product of our work in our own neighborhoods, noting that we’re“contributing to the legacy of San Francisco.”

·     Pedram Farashbandi, principal at David Baker Architects, spoke about the unique shapes and designs that will be seen throughout the residential building.

·     In addition to discussing Treasure Island’s development history/progress and Webcor’s years-long involvement, Vice President John Wilson congratulated the team on building Treasure Island’s first-ever high-rise and emphasized his appreciation for our trade partners—“the ones getting everything done and delivering the hard physical work day after day.”

·     Webcor Concrete Superintendent Kelly Martz thanked the crews, unions, and operators for the tireless work they put into the project and congratulated them on successfully executing a 5-day cycle.

The Webcor BBQ and thank-you raffle for our trade partners was a gratifying celebration following a long year brimming with exceptionally difficult, unprecedented challenges. From weather-related issues fueled by California’s unusually long and intense winter to the logistics-related issues that came with working around four surrounding projects and consistently changing street closures, the project team has faced an onslaught of hurdles over the last year that were not for the weary, Kelly shares.

“Despite these challenges, we finished the year with a great safety record and delivered a quality product on time and on budget,” he says.
