Construction firm Robins & Morton celebrated the groundbreaking of the headquarters for Okaloosa Gas District on March 5 in Valparaiso, Florida.
The project includes a four-story, 152,000-square-foot office building, an 18,400-square-foot operations center, a 7,200-square-foot vehicle maintenance building, and a 23,540-square-foot warehouse.
The space will allow Okaloosa Gas District to consolidate its team members into one location. Further, the campus will replace the existing buildings – including some that are about 70 years old – in which the utility’s support services are currently housed. The facilities’ meeting spaces will also be available for community events.
“Plans are moving forward and we are excited to get this project underway, and some groundwork has already begun,” said Gordon King, Okaloosa Gas District CEO. “We look forward to our ongoing partnership with the community as we continue to grow.”
“We appreciate the trust placed in us to deliver these much-needed facilities for Okaloosa Gas District,” Robins & Morton Project Director Bryan Durkin said. “We look forward to seeing the new campus’ positive impact on this community.”
The project is scheduled for completion in 2025.
Robins & Morton is the general contractor, and DAG Architects is the architect.
