We love Wisconsin. We really do. But after this long wet (and snowy) Spring, one does long for some sunshine. Well it’s sunny in California where Cannella Media has just moved into their new Los Angeles office down the road from their previous location. PSG served as Design-Build contractor for Cannella’s office headquarters in Burlington, Wisconsin, pictured below.
We’ve seen a sustained growth in the industrial sector PSG serves in southeast Wisconsin. And this growth has put pressure on facility capabilities for production, warehousing, and shipping functions. Here are some things you should consider if you’re facing these challenges:
Work has started on a 45,000 SF expansion for Merz North America in Yorkville, WI. PSG is happy to have been called on for a second project with this growing company. The Racine Journal Times published an article this week with information about Merz's interesting business operations, the expansion, and their ongoing commitment and investment in our community. You can check out the article here. http://journaltimes.com/business/local/merz-to-invest-million-here-retain-jobs/article_41a3938c-42f3-547a-81c0-6d0ad9a1f18d.html
It's exciting to see our WVA, Inc. project featured in SBC Magazine, Rural Builder Magazine, and other publications for the use of ACH Foam Techonologies including EPS Geofoam.
PSG's Development Team has been working hard on a new retail building to be located at Hwy 36 and Wegge Road in Burlington. Preleasing is well underway and we expect to breakground in this spring.
While much of the of the retail building is preleased, additional space is available. Plans include a second building (single or multi-tenant) adjacent to the first building. Anyone interested in space at this location can call our office at 262-758-6064.
As this project received site plan approval earlier this month, local news sources have taken interest in this exciting new project.
The end of 2015 saw the completion of two beautiful bridges that span the White River in the White River County Park in Walworth County. The funds for the bridges were provided by three Walworth County families through their family foundations. PSG was engaged as their representative to oversee the project and maximize the impact of their generous gift. This included coordinating efforts with Walworth County, the Geneva Lake Conservancy, and the Friends of the White River County Park. Following initial contact by the donors to Peter Scherrer, PSG conducted a design-bid process, investigated existing similar installations, structured the funding mechanism, processed purchase orders, facilitated DNR approval, and monitored the construction process.
In 2009, the two of us started our own company, The Peter Scherrer Group, as a firm “Rooted in Tradition and Reaching New Heights”. We intently structured it to be adaptable to our clients’ needs as we leveraged our skills to deliver a professional and unique experience to our clients.
PSG is proud to be included in the 2015 edition of Wisconsin Constructor Magazine. In the feature, “Rooted In Tradition, Reaching New Heights,” we touch on what it means to us to bring an optimal approach to our business. We also had the incredible opportunity to discuss what it has been like to achieve over 50 years of combined industry experience and work together as a father and daughter ownership team. Additionally, some of our most recent and prominent projects are highlighted along with photos and comments from our community and client partners.
At The Peter Scherrer Group, we are very excited about Walworth County's recent acquisition of 195 acres of land to become White River Park. In addition to the picturesque terrain, rolling hills, river and trails, the property includes a beautiful historic barn. TPSG has been retained by Walworth County to complete a facilities study on the barn. We are thrilled to be involved in this exciting project and a part of making this historic building a place that the public can visit and enjoy.
