The firm’s construction capabilities include program/project management, construction management, design-build, general contracting, owner’s representative/staff extension and technical consulting. Working with it numerous specialized allies in the industry, from architects and engineers to feasibility consultants, lenders and development consultants, Bovis Lend Lease addresses the distinctive challenges through experience, teamwork, professionalism and proven project control processes. Contracting Methods PROGRAM MANAGEMENT A comprehensive planning and coordination from start to finish for clients with developments involving multiple sites or sites involving multiple buildings. The focus of program Owner management is to become the Owner’s in-house consulting expert for all aspects of the capital project process. Bovis Lend Lease would direct and coordinate the project team from PROGRAM feasibility and planning through project implementation and operation. MANAGER Planning Phase – assist in PROJECT 1 PROJECT 2 Conceptual budgets Site selection Design firm selection CM / GENERAL CM / GENERAL ARCHITECT ARCHITECT CONTRACTOR CONTRACTOR Pre-Construction Phase – provide technical and cost services throughout the contract document development. Construction Phase – review and monitor the construction process. CM/ GC involvement Extension of Owner Staff Observe, Report, Recommend CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT –GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE Our involvement in the design phase allows us to lay the groundwork for a project that runs Owner at optimum efficiency throughout the construction. During the construction phase, we supervise, manage and coordinate the work of all subcontractors to meet set schedules and budgets. Bovis Lend Lease’s construction management services encompass all of our CONSTRUCTION technical services as well as all the administrative management services necessary to keep ARCHITECT MANAGER each project running at optimum efficiency throughout construction. During the construction phase, Bovis Lend Lease will supervise, manage and coordinate the work of all subcontractors.

CONSULTANTS Pre-Construction Phase – provide technical and cost services throughout the contract TRADES document development. Construction Phase – supervise and oversee the entire construction proposal. Fee Based/ “Open Book” policy Multiple bid approach Direct control of contractors CM services can be delivered based on “at-risk” position, where we hold the general, sub and trades contracts or as “agent,” where Bovis Lend Lease provides all of the services associated with construction management, where the owner “holds” the various contractor, subcontractor, trades contracts. The “at-risk” contract or Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) involves the CM guaranteeing a maximum cost for the work, and funding any cost overruns from the CM’s fee. Contracting Methods OWNER PROJECT MANAGEMENT A comprehensive planning and coordination from start to finish for clients with developments involving a single site or a single project. Project management is a set of comprehensive PROJECT services which includes the management and coordination of all design, procurement and MANAGER construction activities, as well as the implementation and coordination of the various tasks that form part of the client's overall project workload. As Project Manager, Bovis Lend Lease serves as the equivalent of an in-house project ARCHITECT CM / GENERAL implementation department operating free of conflicts of interest. GENERAL CONTRACTING Historically, there is little interaction between contractor and architect/ owner during pre-construction. This process usually requires the owner taking the lead in managing the preconstruction and construction. OWNER OWNER DESIGN / BUILD In this approach a single point of contact for the client is adapted in both the design GENERAL and the construction of the project. This provides speed and efficiency of delivery. ARCHITECT CONTRACTOR Bovis Lend Lease’s design/build services incorporate the design and the construction into one cohesive process with a single point of accountability. Bovis Lend Lease works with a specially independent design firm to establish a unified team approach to design/build services.

Our consulting services, usually for financial institutions providing construction lending, include: ARCHITECT CONTRACTOR (S) Evaluating/monitoring site progress; Reviewing the adequacy of construction budgets; TRADE ENGINEERING Providing monthly site inspection to approve requisitions; CONSULTANTS CONTRACTORS Reporting on project status. OWNER’S RERESENTATION The primary goal and duty as an Owner Representative is to assist the client in performing its role as Owner. Accordingly, Bovis Lend Lease, within certain limits, advises our clients on all aspects of the project, including the day-to-day activities and responsibilities involved during the various phases of the acquisition, planning, site preparation, design and construction of the project. In addition, Bovis Lend Lease prepares recommendations with respect to requisite policy decisions relating to design, constructability, budgeting, construction, scheduling and other matters. The services, similar to construction/project management services, are performed at the level required to provide each client with all the necessary technical and managerial skills, and expertise to control the planning, design and construction of a project. Our staff operates in an advisory role, under a direct line of authority from the Owner, providing information and offering alternatives. Mixed Use Experience Introduction

  • Pepsi-Cola Buildnig
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 20, 1995 ; Designation List 265 LP-1920 (Former) PEPSI-COLA BUILDING (now ABN-Amro Bank Building), 500 Park Avenue, a/k/a 62 East 59th Street, Manhattan. Built 1958-60. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, architects; Gordon Bunshaft, design partner; Natalie de Blois, senior designer for project. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1294, Lot 37. On June 15, 1993, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the (former) Pepsi-Cola Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 16). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three witnesses, including a representative of the Municipal Art Society, spoke in favor of designation and no witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. A representative of the owner expressed uncertainty about the proposed designation, but subsequently communicated support for it. The Commission subsequently received two written submissions in favor of designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Summary Located on a prominent comer site along Park Avenue , a thoroughfare associated since the 1950s with sleek, understated modem monuments to corporate America, the Pepsi-Cola Building is one of New York's seminal International Style landmarks. Its superb design, innovative technology, and production as a collaborative effort are all qualities for which the firm of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill was already famous: design partner Gordon Bunshaft guided the firm's New York office, and Natalie de Blois, among the very few women architects at that time, was the senior designer for the project. Throughout its existence, the building has been praised by architectural critics for its clever siting and gemlike treatment, and especially for its sophisticated curtain wall, a nearly smooth skin of gray-green glass and aluminum spandrels.

  • The Cityrealty 100 Report 2020
    THE CITYREALTY 100 REPORT 2020 DECEMBER 2020 THE CityRealty is the website for NYC real estate, providing high-quality listings and tailored agent matching for pro- spective apartment buyers, as well as in-depth analysis of the New York real estate market. 1100 THE CITYREALTY 100 REPORT 2020 About The CityRealty 100 The CityRealty 100 is an index comprising the top 100 condominium buildings in Manhattan. Several factors—including a building’s sales history, prominence, and CityRealty’s rating for the property—are used to determine which buildings are included in the index. This report tracks the performance of those buildings for the one-year period ending September 30, 2020. CityRealty releases regular reports on the CityRealty 100 to track the change in prices of the top 100 Manhattan condo buildings. After falling in 2018 from all-time highs achieved in 2016 and 2017, the index’s average price / foot and total sales volumes were roughly flat in 2020 as compared to 2019, with the average price per square foot increasing 2% to $2,649. For the 12 months ending Sep 30, there were 846 sales which accounted for $4.94B in sales volume. Manhattan real estate, as viewed through the lens of this report, focuses on the city's top tier of buildings, which are seen as a relatively stable and good investment.
