BankNewport Corporate Headquarters

Upon the completion and during the building evaluation phase, we also assisted BankNewport with selecting a project architect and consulting engineers. With the project team in place, Farrar & Associates continued managing this highly successful project as a general contractor/construction manager.

The project plan includes an extensive renovation and additions to a 54,000 sq. ft. facility. This facility will consolidate the bank's administration operations in several locations.

The building plan included extensive renovation and retrofitting of the existing superstructure. Structural steel upgrades were required with the implementation of energy-efficient building systems. Space planning within the interior design included reconstructing the two-story atrium, which serves as the main entrance. This entry will lead visitors to the mass interior office space broken into four centralized hubs. Maintaining Newport heritage, the hubs are identified by Newport landmarks, including Fort Adams, Rose Cliff, Bellevue, and Cliff Walk.

This facility will efficiently serve BankNewport's administration needs for the foreseeable future. Farrar & Associates is proud of being selected to lead this development effort. Estimated project cost: 8.5 million.

Before this project, Farrar & Associates provided project management services evaluating an alternate building site, cost estimating for a ground-up corporate headquarters, and evaluating conventional owner builds vs. an owner/developer delivery.
