Calamar receives TCA award for 3949 Forest Pwy. project

Calamar was recognized with an award for the submission of their new corporate headquarters building at 3949 Forest Pwy. This award was presented in the office category by the Tilt-Up Concrete Association (TCA) at the 2008 TCA Tilt-Up Achievement Awards annual meeting and awards breakfast in Las Vegas during the World of Concrete convention. This is the 17th consecutive year the achievement awards have been held. 3949 Forest Pwy. is located in the Woodlands Corporate Center East, a 120-acre mixed-use park being developed by Calamar. The park is comprised of flex/multi-tenant facilities, industrial, office and retail space as well as a residential component comprised of senior housing apartments and patio homes. The building is 31,000 s/f of office and was constructed utilizing the proprietary CON/STEEL concrete tilt-up system which Calamar has an exclusive licensing agreement with. "By incorporating the latest technology into our own properties and for third-party clients, we are able to deliver the highest quality project and at the same time, reduce the occupancy cost for our clients," said Calamar president Kenneth Franasiak. "We are very excited that 3949 Forest Pwy. was selected to receive this award. The competition is exceptionally challenging and we are pleased to accept this award, and are proud of all the team members that were involved with and associated with this project."
