TESTIMONIALS
“I am in awe of all the men and women who have created Remington Row. From Seawall’s viewpoint, I am sure these are the unsung heroes – and without them this amazing project wouldn’t be possible. We hope that they don’t see themselves as just painters, plumbers, carpenters, masons and so on. They are the creators of residences and offices that will be enjoyed for years to come. Every detail they have built has a meaning onto itself and we are hopeful they will look back and see something more than just another building.”
“Southway never lost sight of the details. Your team helped us evaluate cost saving alternatives that did not jeopardize our vision for the building. As construction managers, Southway was able to command a dynamic team of subcontractors and rally them towards a successful outcome. The true challenge was not simply embracing the concept, but implementing it in time for a 1200-person party ten days PRIOR to turnover so that the building could be debuted and host the kick off to Innovation Week.”
“I am writing to express my great admiration and gratitude for your company’s work on Jubilee’s $18 million Centre Theater. From the very beginning of the project, Southway was undeterred by the state of the vacant, dilapidated and mold-infested building. You own a huge part of the project’s success in reclaiming this forgotten landmark and transforming it into a beacon of hope that is bringing jobs, small businesses and new art forms to the Station North Arts & Entertainment District. Without Southway, the project would not be where it is today — a 100% leased, fully restored landmark on North Avenue – on budget and completed ahead of schedule.”
“As we approach the one-year anniversary of the renovation of the Mercantile Bank into the Chesapeake Shakespeare Company Theater, our appreciation for the dedication we received from Southway remains strong and sincere. Because we had the good luck and good sense to hire Southway, we have nothing but gratitude and good memories. As the project moved along, we knew that we had found a group that was as dedicated to creating a permanent artistic landmark as we were. We always felt we were in good hands and we are quick to give Southway the credit for building it thoughtfully, carefully, with good humor and hard work.”
“I am pleased to say that I and many members of Cho Benn Holback + Associates enjoy, appreciate and value working with Southway Builders. We both perform for our shared clients in the triad of Owner, Architect, and Contractor. We consistently enjoy working with Southway Builders with some of our most trusted clients. Southway maintains a positive non-finger pointing approach in solving problems during construction. Most importantly, they respect their team members, appreciate their advice and input and enjoy spontaneous humor throughout the process. I have been pleased to work with Southway Builders from the start of a very successful company.”
“We have had the pleasure of working closely with Southway Builders who served as the general contractor on three projects. Over the course of the three year initiative, Southway has worked with the Baltimore Integration Project, community leaders, local nonprofit organizations, and a range workforce development organizations to meet and exceed the local workforce, local hiring, and minority business contracting goals set out for each of the development projects. Southway has taken ownership of these ideas and helped move work forward. Project managers and company leadership also participated in exit interviews to help BIP stakeholders understand what worked well – so processes and systems can be improved.”
