After more than 10 years in our current location, KHH is moving - but not too far. Our new building is approximately one-half mile from our former offices on Widewaters Parkway. The location is 5710 Commons Park Drive in East Syracuse (see our Directions page for more details.)
The office building will be occupied entirely by Klepper, Hahn & Hyatt to accommodate our growth and expanded services. Over a one-year period, from August 2007 to August 2008, we will have increased our full-time staff by 18 percent. Our new offices have more than 14,000 square feet, which is more than double the space we have vacated. We will have space for 40-plus staff members, and will be serving our clients from the new location beginning June 2, 2008.
Klepper, Hahn & Hyatt garnered two awards from the recent gathering of the American Concrete Institute of Central New York.
The firm’s work on the Alumni Hall Masonry Facade Repair took a Bronze Award for owner Colgate University. This was a restoration project on an 1859 stone masonry building.
Another restoration project for Syracuse University earned an Award of Merit. The Hall of Languages North Entry Stairs and Foundation Wall Repair remedied safety and aesthetic issues for five entrance stairways plus foundation and site work for the 1873 building, the oldest on the University campus.
Both projects successfully rehabilitated deteriorating elements while restoring the structural integrity and replicating the original historic appearance of the buildings.
A Topping Ceremony was held April 18, 2008 to place the top piece of steel on the treehouse structure for the SUNY Upstate Medical University Vertical Expansion, which will house the Golisano Children’s Hospital. The steel beam was fitted with an American flag and a spruce tree which was donated by the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. The tradition of placing a tree on the top portion of a structure dates back to Scandinavian builders in the early Middle Ages. Originally religious in nature, the practice now is meant to evoke growth and good luck for the builders and occupants of the new building.
