Bringing Two Teams to the Finish Line with Shared Success
CB2/Crate & Barrel, Walnut Street Store—Landlord Representative
Modern furniture retailer CB2 signed a lease for a 12,000 SF retail space on one of the most sought-after blocks in Philadelphia’s Center City district. We were brought in as the landlord’s representative to work alongside CB2 and their Chicago-based design and construction team. While representing our landlord client, we worked to align all stakeholder interests to come up with mutually agreeable solutions, laying out a fast-track construction schedule to:
- Convert interior space into a prime retail asset
- Conduct structural, mechanical and architectural system upgrades
- Upgrade all code-required life safety systems to building code standards
- Construct a custom-fabricated stone façade, complete with storefront glazing along the 60 LF Walnut Street frontage
High-end Retail Fit-out as a Backdrop for Modern Furniture and Decor
The $1.8M project, was completed in 2018, in accordance with tenant design and construction standards and expectations, and to landlord’s satisfaction. The store opened to great fanfare and continues to be a draw for shoppers on the Walnut Street corridor.
