McNea & Sons Construction is the general contractor on the build. They were issued a foundation permit on November 21 that allowed them to get started on the project, which replaces the former Allied Valve Industries industrial building on the southeast corner of Carpenter Street and Grand Avenue. That structure was torn down last fall after a demolition permit was issued in August.
