As usual, a lot has been happening at D&B over the last few months! In May we celebrated the completion of the fifth floor of an 80,000 SF adaptive reuse project with a topping off ceremony, and the following month we started a multi-family project on the right foot with a ground-breaking ceremony for our client's latest ground-up construction project. This Spring, our residential sister company D&B Elite Custom was recognized as the 2022 People's Choice winner for the New Home Builder and Top Home Contractor. Here's a behind the scene's look at what we've been up to with some of our projects actively underway!

Although we’re just a quarter of the way into the year, a lot has been happening for D&B and we don’t think our team of go-getters would have it any other way. We hit the ground running from the start of 2022, with a race to the finish line as we moved into our new Corporate Headquarters in Wyomissing, PA. From here, we took a quick breather and now spring construction season is in full swing! Here's what we've been up to, both on our jobsites and in our new headquarters...

Like most other individuals, we were filled with a sense of optimism as we left 2020 in the rearview mirror. Now, as 2021 comes to a close, we reflect on all of the challenges we have overcome as a team throughout this year – from supply chain issues to labor shortages. Like many businesses, we got creative and thought outside the box, made pivots and adapted. Often with great challenges come great rewards. The grit of our team and extended team of Trade Partners and Suppliers helped us continue to complete projects on time and within budget for our clients, despite the obstacles we may have run into in these unprecedented times. As we look back on this year, we are once again proud of what our D&B family has achieved, both collectively and individually. In this issue you'll see a recap of our year in review, get décor inspo from our residential team, get a sneak peek of our new corporate office that we are moving to in the New Year, and more!

As the season transitions from Summer to Fall, we are busy getting ready to hand over the keys to many of our client’s spaces as we complete their projects on time and within budget. Learn more about these projects in this issue! In the healthcare sector, we are currently wrapping up projects for some of our leading healthcare clients: Tower Health, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and America’s largest independent cardiac care practice, Cardiology Consultants of Philadelphia. You'll also learn about the evolution of D&B, our diverse portfolio, and our team-focused mentality with employees and trade partners alike in our CEO Dan Gring's recent interview with Design, Develop, Construction Journal.

In this issue: What exactly goes into preserving a 180-year-old home weighing over 400 tons? (If you're thinking a lot you aren't wrong!) See why the stress, fatigue, and cost were all worth it to preserve our history as we talk with community members and the experts who helped the historic Enola Miller House reach its new foundation before we began construction on a 46-acre development that will be home to a new thirteen building multi-family luxurious living complex. In addition to seeing our most recently completed projects and those that just broke ground, you'll also learn how Team D&B used their core values (which fittingly enough spell out ADAPT) in order to stay true to our mission of delivering top-quality projects delivered on time and within budget despite the challenges our industry has been facing with project schedules being delayed thanks to COVID, supply chain issues, and spikes in lumber prices.
