We feel the modular construction technique will only grow in popularity as we will see more businesses opt for this type of construction rather than traditional methods in the future. Client CitizenM is a Netherlands-based hotel company offering affordable luxury hotels that embraces an international style. General Contractor Gilbane Building Company Location: 1222 First St, NE, Washington, DC project, from a development team led by CityPartners, will include a 9 story, 296 unit hotel plus penthouse with 6,500 square feet of retail on the ground floor, multiple meeting rooms, a 710 square foot fitness center and 1,000 square foot of bike storage, shower/changing facilities on the basement level. About the project: Modular Prefabricated construction system, where the rooms/units of the building are made off-site at a manufacturer’s facility and then shipped to the site for installation. Modular construction key benefits: Saves time, projects can be completed in a shorter amount of time, some projects taking 6 months or less to complete Increases safety since each unit is built in a controlled environment in the manufacturer’s warehouse as compared to working on-site where the setting is less predictable Provides more quality control, easy installation, and troubleshooting, due to the repetition of unit types in the controlled plant conditions Limits raw material waste through a more accurate plan for inventory use This great new design and construction allows the hotel to offer luxury rooms at affordable prices Connect with W.G./Welch Mechanical Contractors Obtain a Project Estimate CONTACT US Career Opportunities APPLY TODAY SERVICES PORTFOLIO ABOUT FIELD MGMT TEAM CAREERS CONTACT US © 2020 W.G./Welch Mechanical Contractors, LLC
