To celebrate this year’s Women in Construction Week presented by the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), this edition of Said Differently – Beyond the Build profiles Project Manager Kim Hoffman. In this episode, Kim opens up about her transition into construction, her experience as a woman in the industry, and offers valuable advice for those considering a similar path.

There are a variety of challenges involved with building projects on undeveloped land – but uncovering historical artifacts or cultural finds might not be among the challenges that first come to mind. In this episode of Said Differently, we head out to the in-progress Scotford Solar Project in Alberta, Canada, with Project Manager Mike Jeske, where various cultural artifacts were discovered during the excavation stage of the project.

Later in the episode, we revisit the Virginia Institute of Marine Science Davis Hall project with Project Manager Jim Droski. The project location in Gloucester Pointe, Virginia, situated on the York River right across Yorktown, delivered some interesting artifacts from the Revolutionary and Civil Wars during land clearing and excavation.

From sports and entertainment to higher education and healthcare, Barton Malow has built an impressive resume in the Columbus, Ohio area over the last four decades. 

 Barton Malow broke ground on its first major project in Ohio in 1983, a $24-million addition and renovation to Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Since then, the Barton Malow team has continued striving for excellence, creating positive and lasting relationships with each successful project along the way.

In this episode, we sit down with  Project Executive Adrienne Sraver and Project Manager Quentin Pruneau  to discuss our impact on the city, the greater community, and the future of Columbus in the next 40 years.
