EHC Team Meeting | Confined Space | February 2021

Van Tilbury

Special Thanks to Raven Franklin, Intern, for her research and sharing on Confined Space Standards.

A Confined Space meets all three of the following conditions:

1) Limited Openings for Entry and Exit.

2) The Space is not Intended for Continuous Human Occupancy. This means that the space was designed to hold something other than people.

3) The Space is Large Enough for You to Enter and Conduct Work.

2020 Award Winner – Outstanding Achievement in Adaptive Reuse

On January 22, 2021, the Winchester Auto Building was awarded the 2020 Outstanding Achievement in Adaptive Reuse Award by Preserve Arkansas!

East Harding Construction teamed up with Polk Stanley Wilcox to renovate & restore the 72 year old historic building, which is now the Polk Stanley Wilcox Corporate Office.

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.

A center niche has been carved out to provide a beautiful kitchen with all the modern day amenities one  would expect, including two stainless steel refrigerators, two stainless steel microwaves, a stainless steel dishwasher and a stainless steel coffee station.  All of this stainless steel is beautifully wrapped in wood-grain cabinetry and accented with matching shelves lined with cups, plates, and glassware.  The stone covered island and countertops turn this space into a uniquely inviting area for the staff and guests to refresh and replenish.
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 in this beautifully redesigned building is representative of the importance of historic preservation and the necessity of modernization.
East Harding Construction is very proud and grateful to have been a part of bringing the past into the future with this beautiful adaptation to a piece of Little Rock’s history.
