This years Christmas party was held at Samantha’s in Little Rock. They have a beautiful skybox that overlooks the main floor restaurant. Trimmed in garland and lights, this room made the perfect setting for a cozy, family style get together.

The food was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed the fellowship. The evening wrapped up with a few rounds of Christmas carols led by Dietrich Booth

Special thanks to Van Tilbury and all the people at EHC that make it such a great place to work!

The recently renovated, historic Winchester Building is now home to Polk Stanley Wilcox Architects.  This nostalgic piece of history boasts its original glass block entrance, steel frames and brick facade.
 
The interior has been beautifully redesigned and renovated to show off the original steel-framed, glass windows that divide the gathering hall and reception area from the large, two-story open-air office space.

The upstairs is comprised of conference/meeting rooms and open view office spaces that overlook the work stations on the main floor.

One of the most unique aspects of this space is the original, functioning dumbwaiter with its wheel & sprocket crank shaft that brings back a bit of nostalgia.

The combination of old and new is this beautifully redesigned building is representative of the importance of historic preservation and the necessity of modernization.

The new Polk Stanley Wilcox headquarters demonstrates the best of both and East Harding Construction is very proud and grateful to have been a part of bringing the past into the future.

East Harding Construction is proud to be an “Icing on the Cake” sponsor for Carelink’s 5th Annual “Cupcakes for Goodness Sake”.

The annual cupcake festival is a chance to connect with the community & to raise awareness about CareLink, a nonprofit organization that has been headquartered in NLR since 1979 to provide care and resources to the aging.

The theme this year was Halloween and everyone, including pets, were encouraged to wear their Halloween costumes to the festival.  There were many activities going on in addition to the cupcake tastings such as face painting, a petting zoo and cupcake decorating.

The delicious event was a big success and plans are likely underway to make next years event even more fun and more delicious!

The Pine Bluff/Jefferson County Library Systems selected East Harding Construction as CM Agent for these three renovation projects.

Our office is moving toward greener living! East Harding is stocking its kitchen with pint glasses and ceramic coffee mugs for employee and guest use and doing away with paper cups and bottled water. We believe this is an important step in reducing our carbon footprint and improving the environment. We invite you to do the same. Together we can make a difference!

These new aerial photos show how fast this project is progressing!

Only a short time ago, this was a vacant lot!

East Harding Construction hosted lunch for Polk Stanley Wilcox Architects at the historic Winchester building in downtown Little Rock.  The 13,000 sf Winchester building was built in 1947 and represents the quintessential architectural design of the forties.

The entire Polk Stanley Wilcox office was invited to tour the site, ask questions and enjoy a fantastic lunch catered by Eat My Catfish.  Van Tilbury, President & CEO, East Harding Construction, expressed his appreciation to Polk Stanley Wilcox Architects for allowing us to be part of their team in turning this piece of history into a part of their future as their new corporate office.  Shawn Carroll, Vice President-Operations, Kevin Messick, Project Manager & Scott France, Site Superintendent were there to help guide the tour and field questions about this extensive renovation.

A special thanks to Kevin and Scott for working together to make this such a successful event.

From early morning concrete pours, to setting steel, framing, prepping the second floor slab, & installing sanitary piping & duct work, everyone has done a great job pulling together & making things run smoothly & efficiently! Great job guys!
