D&B Construction has been engaged by the Developer (Riverfront at Royersford, LLC) as the General Contractor for this state-funded RACP Grant Project for the scope of work required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). In our role as General Contractor on this Project, we started top soil removal, existing concrete foundation removal and mass grading during the first week of October 2022. This limited scope of work, which entails bringing elevations of the existing grade out of the 100-year flood plain on this four-acre space, is anticipated to be complete in the beginning of December. Extensive permitting has taken place with the required agencies so the site elevation will be appropriately raised to withstand any issues.

Once complete, this project will be a mixed-use facility that features a combination of multi-family apartment living by the river, supported by commercial retail space at grade level, which will offer entertainment and restaurant opportunities. The Riverfront at Royersford, LLC’s goal for this space is to bring life back to the river at what was once the industrial brownfield sites.  This LLC is comprised of Lewis Environmental’s President, Rick Lewis, and The Commonwealth Group’s Vice President, Don Robitzer.

According to Rick Lewis, “This process has been 10 years in the making… We work here, we live here, we want it to be great for everyone.” The trestle bridge connects two counties and three municipalities, and the hope of this re-imagined space is to attract recreational boating and other uses for the Schuylkill River. A riverside lounge with a 15,000 SF riverfront deck will make way for music and various uses, accompanied by a beautiful riverfront setting with direct access to the Schuylkill River Trail System. The commercial retail opportunities will span in availability from 1,000 SF to 10,000 SF, and the apartments will offer studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and loft options just minutes from Routes 422 and 724.

The Reserve at Gring’s Mill is set in a picturesque pocket of Berks County, bordered by county park systems and rails to trails. Centrally located to all major highways, this complex boasts 10 buildings with 21 one and two bedroom units per building. This luxurious multi-family complex is just one of dozens that D&B Construction led the charge on in 2020 and beyond as a trusted partner of Metropolitan Companies.

D&B Construction is managing the construction of a mixed use design-build project for The Commonwealth Group. We broke ground in August of 2021. The complex is located in Chester County and will feature space for up to eight tenants on the ground floor. This retail and commercial space is for lease and seeking businesses that "will add value to the community." The project also features two floors of multi-family space, which will be composed of 24 garden style one- and two-bedroom luxury apartments. The apartment units will range in size from 910 SF to 1,152 SF and to be ADA compliant. Other amenities will include lush outdoor gathering spaces, walking trails throughout the community, a 6,000 SF plaza, pavilions, gazebos, and tree-lined streets. Learn more here.

It also included the installation of underground utilities for restrooms and ancillary sinks for specific in-house operations. Over 50 exam rooms, medical specific rooms, and offices made up this project, along with a staff lounge and conference room.

Safety and efficiency were top of mind with the inclusion of a high level of radiology protection in glazing, doors and wall partitions. Medical grade millwork and acoustic ceilings, wall protection, sound dampening for specific rooms, FRP, and more were also included. Aesthetics were not overlooked, as you will find a high level of detail in all finishes with light trough soffits and detailed accent paint features.
