Belmont Village Assisted Living Facility, Rancho Palos Verdes

The Belmont Village Assisted Living facility is a 114-unit (one to three bedrooms), three-story Mediterranean style building on 4.9 acres.

The $13 million project is located on "Church Row" in a prestigious residential community. Keeping the neighbors content was a very important aspect to the project. W.E. O'Neil's team leader, construction veteran Greg Pruett, served as community liaison and kept the project going by adhering to strict noise curfew restrictions and delivery times, etc.

The building construction is slab on grade, structural steel with metal decking, tile mansard roof and plaster. The sitework included substantial earthwork including some rock excavation, a small exercise pool, parking on surface lots and landscaping.

"The O'Neil team did a great job dealing with very demanding local building officials, neighbors and a site with many challenges without letting those demands delay the completion. You can't ask for a better performance than that!"
-Paul Chapman, vice president of Belmont Corp.

The facility also includes a dementia unit.

The project suffered significant rain delays during the first few months of construction.

To expedite scheduling, construction was sequenced so that the second and third floors were completed before the first floor began. Because the construction was completed early, the FFE phase began after the general contractor completely moved off the site. Despite initial rain delays, the project was completed early.
