CHARLESTON INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT WINS AWARD FOR ITS APRON CONSTRUCTION IN 2013

Mez Joseph

Congratulations to our friends at the Charleston Airport Authority, ADC Engineering & McCarthy Improvement Company for their talent, vision, dedication & commitment to quality! Liollio Architecture is honored to be part of this important project. Read The Post & Courier article here.

“This project was complicated because the airport remained operational at all times during construction, which occurred 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,” said Greg Jones, a partner in ADC Engineering.

“The contractor was extremely cooperative and attentive to schedules and quality,” Jones said. “The airport staff was diligent in the supervision of airport users and the design team worked hand-in-hand with the contractor to methodically complete the project. These efforts resulted in a high-quality concrete apron, delivered on time, under budget and with no compromise to operations or safety.”

Shaping the Future of West Ashley: A Public Discussion

Mez Joseph

Dinos Liollio was invited to serve as a panelist for a symposium focused on Shaping the Future of West Ashley: A Public Discussion. The symposium was held on the evening of January 5th, 2015 at the West Ashley High School auditorium. Approximately 300 people in attendance heard presentations by Mayor Riley and Tim Keane, City of Charleston; and Michael Bobby, Acting Superintendent of Charleston County School District. The panel, consisting of neighborhood, business and school and city leaders, took questions from the audience. Many of the questions focused on a vision for improved infrastructure, establishing a coalition between County and City planners focusing on governmental intersection of properties,  on-going economic development in the region, and quality of life issues, including new public libraries and schools. City of Charleston Council members were well in attendance, as was Coleen Condon, County Council representative from the West Ashley area.

The symposium was organized by Sue Stevens and the Charles Towne District Task Force, and moderated by Margaret Seidler and Bob Parks.

The next symposium will focus on infrastructure in the West Ashley area and will be held within the next 90 days.
