Woodmore Topping Out Ceremony

6/9/2022

0 Comments

 
On Wednesday, June 8, 2022, the Soto team excitedly attended the Topping Out Ceremony at Woodmore Apartments, alongside developer Varsity Investment Group and the builder, CBG Building Company.  The team began walking through the almost completed clubhouse, then through the many different construction phases on site: from beginning framing to viewing finished units.  
​

Woodmore Apartments is a new market-rate community located in Glenarden, Maryland of Prince George’s County.  The community consists of five four-story buildings with 268 apartments.  Additionally, a five-thousand square foot clubhouse will provide future residents with a party room, fitness room, and gathering spaces.  Seeing this large project come to life was exciting for our team, as it is one of our largest projects in construction yet.  
It was really exciting to do a walkthrough of Woodmore with the design team to understand the various strategies used to ensure a successful, phased construction. I enjoyed walking through one of the framed buildings to understand how the design accommodates maximizing unit layouts, the building structure, and MEP complexities. When we walked through the almost completed clubhouse, we discussed finishes, code regulations, and lessons learned!  it was a great experience!

Yesterday at Soto, I was able to attend the Topping Off of Woodmore Apartments. While there I saw the project at various stages of development: from framing to finished units. I found it really informative to see more of the construction process, especially with the trained eye of the Soto Staff. This experience was a great way to learn about how what we design gets taken into the physical form and the general practices of a construction site. I look forward to more site visits in my future with Soto.

This experience was a great lesson learned for the team and we  are excited to see the continued progress of Woodmore as construction continues!
