Architecture at its finest.

More growth to report!

What goes into planning a project like the South Carolina Empowerment and History Museum? A lot more than you might think! JCC's Pre-Construction process for this project consists of the following steps: 1. Vision and Planning 2. Landmark Designation Process 3. City and State Approvals 4. Collaboration with Design and Construction Teams 5. Preparation for Construction During the Pre-Construction process, we strive to keep a few factors top of mind, including community impact, historical preservation, and sustainability. It is a crucial balance to honor the building's original character and incorporate eco-friendly practices and materials, all while minimizing disruptions to the surrounding community. We are scheduled to begin renovations on the South Carolina Empowerment and History Museum in Q1 of this year. Stayed tuned for more updates! #JordonConstructionCompany #CommunityImpact #GreenvilleConstruction #ConstructionExcellence #PreConstruction

What color should we do next?

The Met’s Next Masterpiece… The Metropolitan Museum of Art is boldly stepping into a new chapter with the $550 million Oscar L. Tang and H.M. Agnes Hsu-Tang Wing for Modern and Contemporary Art. First announced a few years ago (video) and designed by the trailblazing architect Frida Escobedo (Taller Frida Escobedo) —the first woman to lead such a commission in The Met’s 150-year history—this project is more than just a new wing; it’s a redefinition of the institution’s ethos. Set to break ground in 2026 and open by 2030, the new wing symbolizes a reimagined relationship between history and modernity. With eco-friendly green roofs and enhanced community collaborations, including partnerships with the Central Park Conservancy, The Met is creating a space that bridges generations while inspiring fresh perspectives on art and culture. As The Met embarks on this exciting new chapter, it stands as a powerful reminder that history and innovation can harmoniously coexist to shape the future of art and culture. 🎥 CBS Mornings / CBS Artsy: https://bit.ly/3VAEgNZ

Construction of the new Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art on campus is beginning to take shape, with a majority of cement having been poured for the project. Exterior and interior walls are beginning to go up, and curbing for the road connecting Smith Drive to the David R. Goode Arts Complex is nearing completion, with asphalt work expected to begin soon. The building is expected to be ready for occupancy by January 2026. Funded by philanthropists Jane Batten, Joan Brock, and Susan and David Goode, this historic partnership between VWU and Virginia MOCA will allow the museum to create a hub for creativity, innovation, and immersive experience for its visitors, and its new central location will allow it to better connect with the region’s 1.6 million people. While Virginia MOCA will remain an independent museum, there will be ample opportunities for VWU students and the Susan S. Goode School of Arts and Humanities to collaborate in a variety of ways.
