The MCC ministry in Ephrata (Lancaster County) wanted to consolidate three divisions of their operation into one location. But they needed much more space to accomplish their goal.
The leaders of MCC approached ACi with some ideas of what they wanted, and our design team helped them plan a 36,000 square foot space (next to their existing building) that would help their operation grow and better serve their customers.
The client approached us with an idea of what they wanted as far as building layout. Their goal was to combine the operations of three divisions: The retail thrift store, bookstore, and furniture store.
After meeting with our designer, we created a floorplan to share with the client. After a few revisions to the plan, we finalized the project details and set a start date.
The client chose pre-engineered steel construction because it is less costly and could be completed faster.
Building Material: Pre-engineered steel
Square Footage: 36,000 total (20,000 sq. ft. of retail space and a 16,000 sq. ft. area for storage & sorting donated items, including a bookstore).
Project Duration: 12 months from design through completed construction
Additional Project: We also removed the existing building and re-purposed the area as the new store’s parking lot.
For any construction or renovation project, we will be the General Contractor (GC) for the project. As the GC, we rely on trusted sub-contractors we’ve worked with for years. Subcontracted work can include HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and drywall.
However, you, as the client, can bring in your contractors if you wish.
