On June 29, staff from West Sacramento-based Brown Construction, Inc. were called to a San Diego Convention Center stage to accept a Gold Nugget Grand Award for The M.A.Y. Building, a beaming renovation project in the heart of Sacramento's historic K Street. Before a ballroom of 700+ industry professionals from around the world, Brown Construction's Fantasia Stensland, who led the construction of the project, along with colleagues Jeannine Long and Stacy Rhodes, accepted the award on behalf of the project team which includes Sacramento-based developer Sutter Capital Group, architect Hausman Architecture, and interior designer Ultimate Designs.
In May 2016, we reported on the groundbreaking of the Lowell Neighborhood Projects in Fresno—two new construction and renovation projects producing 30 new, high-quality, affordable housing units. The Lowell Neighborhood in Fresno has long been blighted, attracting rampant crime in the form of prostitution, drugs, and gang violence. At the groundbreaking, residents, neighbors, and local officials were full of excitement and hope for the new life that the construction projects would bring to the desperate neighborhood. Construction on both projects wrapped up in mid-June and today, the Fresno Housing Authority hosted the grand opening ceremony for the projects now branded Fénix @ Calaveras and Fénix @ Glenn. Where there once stood dilapidated, run-down apartment buildings now stand two beautifully-designed, craftsman-style, high-quality, affordable multifamily housing complexes complete with modern amenities.

Grand Opening of The Barn: A Dream Made Real
It was a day that Sacramentans on both sides of the river had long been anticipating ever since the first sightings of the confounding spaceship-shaped wood and steel frame rising from the ground just north of Highway 50 on the west bank of the Sacramento River. The grand opening ceremony of the iconic West Sacramento venue, The Barn, took place today, July 22, 2016. The Brown Construction team proudly joined owner/developer Fulcrum Property, West Sacramento Mayor Christopher Cabaldon, City Councilmembers, the Chamber of Commerce, and local community members to commemorate the completion of The Barn—the most unique and most challenging project that Brown Construction has had the pleasure to build.
