1200 Madison Project is a 17-story residential building for Holland Partners with ground floor retail and two levels of below grade parking. The residential component will include 237 apartment units with floor plates just over 13,000 SF. The ground floor retail contains 6,797 SF fronting Madison St. and wrapping around the corner onto Minor Ave. Three residential unit flats will front Minor Ave. with the residential tower lobby entrance entry separating the retail from the residential. The two levels of below grade parking contain 108 stalls. Open space amenities include at grade, third floor level and rooftop gardens and terraces. There will also be indoor amenity spaces for the residents such as a fitness center, entertainment room and storage lockers. The structure is post-tensioned concrete slabs with concrete cores. The building enclosure system includes brick, architectural precast concrete panels, window wall, and metal panel systems. The total extent of the project will have an overall gross square footage of approximately 227,700. This is the first new apartment construction on “Pill Hill” in 35 years.

J. R. Hayes performed the mass excavation for the below grade parking along with the installation of underground utilities to service the site.  The Hayes work also included structural excavation and backfill, shoring support and many other small sitework components to assist the general contractor in maintaining an aggressive completion schedule.  Along with this sitework, there were many unique challenges to overcome due to the location and the large amount of populace found in the area.  With our combined experience these challenges were met head on in the early stages of construction, resulting in early milestone completion and excellent jurisdictional relationships.

We are looking forward to a long working relationship with our new trade partners at Holland Residential.
