Accor North America selected Keating Building Corporation as their construction manager for this premier French hotel, the first new Sofitel to join the North American network in 12 years. This 14-Story, 300-Room, luxury hotel tower includes retail space, full-service French brasserie-style restaurant and lobby bar, meeting and banquet rooms and a grand 5,000 sq. ft. ballroom.
Extensive renovations were made to transform the former Philadelphia Stock Exchange Building in the downtown business and financial district. A fast-tracked 12-month schedule was developed to accomplish the Owner's objective. In cooperation with the design team, Keating developed a multi-phased Contract Document preparation process which enabled “front-end” work to proceed while affording the designers and Owner sufficient time for further design considerations. Construction proceeded with multiple specialty contractors working in a coordinated, multiple-shift process to achieve the occupancy and opening dates.
