Scope Of Work
Prior to purchasing this existing Northern Prince George’s County liquor store, the owners hired an architect and invested a significant sum of money to prepare a set of plans for the redevelopment of the property. Unfortunately, the cost of construction as detailed in the architect’s drawings, and as verified by the owner’s solicitation of multiple proposals from various contractors, far exceeded the budget cost that would make the deal feasible.
The owner approached Northstar and requested that Northstar prepare an estimate in hopes that Northstar would be able to contradict the previous contractors and provide a significantly lower project cost. Northstar countered with an offer to propose a project that would meet the owners budget and satisfy the redevelopment of the facility. By utilizing their knowledge of the building codes, building materials, and cost, Northstar was able to create a plan to remodel the aging and dated liquor store into a new, modern, vibrant retail store within the owners prescribed budget.
The owner proceeded to purchase the aged liquor store, and Northstar performed the remodel within the prescribed budget. Removal of interior bearing walls and installation of steel support beams allowed the integration of a rear room in to the main sales area provided large open spaces for amenities such as a 14 door walk in cooler, a separate 8 door walk in, multiple retail shelving units, and gondola displays for beverages.
