The Waymark Walnut Creek Transit Village project provided a significant opportunity to showcase Royal Electric Company leadership, perseverance, innovation, and most importantly, collaboration. It is a story of unexpected challenges, lessons learned, a strong team, and coming out the other side better than when we started. Royal was subcontracted by Deacon LLC for the first phase of this project, which involved constructing 358 apartment units, along with 15,000 square-feet of retail space and a variety of community areas. With construction kicking off in October 2019, the project team navigated a variety of schedule and budget challenges, ultimately achieving final completion in January 2023. While many other projects experienced shutdowns during the COVID-19 Pandemic, our teams did a fantastic job adapting to constant changes to maintain the schedule and keep crews working. In fact, what represented a seemingly insurmountable challenge for our company as a whole during the pandemic, became an incredible opportunity for team growth with the extra manpower onsite, not to mention delivering for a valued client. We were proud to come together with Deacon and all other trades on the project, as we collaboratively served our community and contributed to a groundbreaking solution for the Bay Area’s housing crisis.
