PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Westview Tower project involved the comprehensive renovation of approximately 161,464 s.f. within a multi-floor residential facility. This project entailed interior and exterior renovations of a 13-story residential building, which remained occupied throughout the process, with no change in occupancy.

The exterior renovations included the installation of a new storefront entry vestibule with automatic doors, as well as other individual storefront entrances. Interior renovations encompassed the removal and replacement of flooring, wall, and ceiling finishes, along with doorframes, doors, casework, vanities, and countertops. The project also involved upgrades to plumbing and lighting fixtures and select electrical and mechanical systems.

The reconfiguration of several key spaces on the first floor to create new office spaces, a break room, a workroom, a group laundry room, a salon, an exterior terrace patio, and a community room was also part of the renovation. All public areas were enhanced with new furniture, artwork, and accessories, creating modern and welcoming spaces for residents.

Additionally, residential units received a refresh with new wood plank-looking vinyl flooring, paint, LED lighting, new walk-in showers and countertops in the bathrooms, and new ranges, refrigerators, quartz countertops, and cabinets in the kitchens.
