    Taylor Kohrs is working on the rehabilitation of two historical landmarks for the Town of Windsor Colorado! Eaton House was built in 1903 by Benjamin Eaton (Colorado’s 4th governor). Mr. Eaton was an irrigation pioneer and constructed the Eaton house as workforce housing for vital irrigation employees to stay. Once renovations are complete, the Eaton House will become a classroom, community gathering place, and visitors center where the community can learn about and celebrate the history of the Town of Windsor. Dickey Farmhouse was built in 1905 by the Dickeys, a prominent Windsor family who operated one of the largest farms in the area. On the property is the oldest structure in Windsor, known as Halfway House. This house was built in 1873 and earned its name by being halfway between Greeley and Laporte along the Overland Trail. Once finished, the site will become a designated agricultural heritage site where visitors can look back in time and appreciate the historical and cultural significance. These historical landmarks will be completed using as much of the original materials as possible to preserve the structures architectural design and integrity. Thank you, Town of Windsor, for trusting us with the restoration of these houses. We know they are the fabric of your community, and we are honored to be a part of it! #ColoradoHistory #Restoration #CulturalConstruction

    This should be required with every pull test.

    Why probe holes in outer masonry walls are important when testing helical ties. When testing helical ties it is always a good practice to have one or more probe holes in the outer masonry wall. By having this you will be able to see exactly what your helical ties will be going into. Be it brick, CMU, mortar, etc. This will also allow you to test each component individually to see exactly what the pull out values will be. Without probe holes one does not know for certain what is behind the outer wall, and what condition the backup wall is in. PROSOCO, Inc. #Restoration #Helical #Historic #Structural #NYC

    Just wrapped up an amazing holiday party for our Turner Construction Company project team, and I couldn't be happier with how it all came together. It was great to bring everyone together and celebrate all we've accomplished this year and look forward to another great year ahead! We're counting down the days until the first game at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. Kansas Athletics, Inc.

  • We have know for a long time that this young man was going to move up very quickly and that's exactly what is starting to happen. The sky is truly the limit when you show up everyday ready to work hard, use your head, show respect to everyone, all while having a smile on your face. Meet José Barron, a superintendent for our Kansas City office and he is a standout in his work ethic, professionalism, attitude, and his eagerness to learn. We are proud of how far he has come already and we are excited to see how far he can go! 💪

  • Big day right for a great project right in our backyard! Excited to be part of it!

  • Our Denver branch did a great job restoring and cleaning the masonry on 4 large historic buildings on this campus and it's nice to see families moving into the units. Adaptive reuse of existing buildings is very satisfying!

    Archway Communities recently celebrated the grand opening of their newest community located at the Mosaic Community Campus in Denver! Taylor Kohrs is proud to have been a partner in this adaptive re-use of the former Johnson and Wales dormitories into 154 units of multi-family affordable housing. A combination of one bedroom, two bedroom and three bedroom apartments make this a versatile community with something to offer for everyone. The project also received historic tax credits. The Mosaic Community Campus offers an array of services aimed at community development. Owned by the Urban Land Conservancy, the former Johnson & Wales Denver campus is now home to a number of organizations that create the community.

  • It is very rewarding to tour a project and reflect back on how it looked before the restoration work ever started. The Zhou B Art Center, just Southwest of the 18th & Vine Jazz District, is no exception! What a great adaptive reuse of a historic building that was vacant for a long time.
