The Bull City Cool food hub comes to life on “veggie delivery day” in a beautiful and organic orchestra of movement. And that orchestra wouldn’t be complete without a conductor, who of course needs a podium. (My logic here feels very reminiscent of one of my favorite books – If You Give a Mouse A […]
No Longer Vanilla
Our warehouse space is officially clean, complete, and code-compliant. What really “finishes it off” is the quick and consistent paint job by Gonzalez Painters. At approximately 2,500 sq ft the warehouse is a vast space, most of which is now white or grey. One exception is our newly installed bathroom that’s painted a vivid green […]
What color is that?
A show of hands, who remembers that Colgate Whitening toothpaste commercial from the ’90s where the teacher asks kindergarten students “What color are my teeth?” …and they respond, “Beige! Off-white! Stucco! Ecru! Mother of Pearl!” Okay, you can put your hands down now. (I know I’ll have to if I want to timely finish this […]
From Rubble to Ramp
We find ourselves in a love-hate relationship with construction of our ADA-compliant wheelchair ramps. We love to make the Bull City Cool Food Hub accessible to one and all by installing these ramps. We hate the logistics of their construction. Since the love half is pretty clear, let me elaborate more on the hate half. As […]
Stucco Magic!
Alakazam! Poof! Stucco magic! A2Z Contractors’ meticulous craftsmanship is on display in a major way at the food hub. Check out the refinished, recreated, and repaired stucco featured here. All the historical details preserved, of course… spared no expense. In the foreground you can see fresh stucco repairs not yet dry. In the background that’s […]
That’s a lot of paint
At approximately 4,000 sq ft Bull City Cool has a LOT of exterior wall space… But that’s not slowing down Gonzalez Painters! Our trusted painters are back and working their way around the building to make it – for the first time in a long time – one consistent color. (Mud-colored aluminum siding and paint […]
Crumbling Stucco – Not a Keeper
One of our most exciting – and earliest – discoveries during construction was the original 1950’s stucco exterior that was masked by aluminum siding. In this picture you can see its intricate details running vertically and horizontally. You can also see it’s withstood a bit of damage over the years. Between old age, construction, and […]
The Warehouse Fan… A Ghost of the Past
SING to the tune of the Ghostbusters theme song: “If there’s something strange in your neighborhood. Who ya gonna call?” A2Z Contractors! “If there’s something weird and it don’t look good. Who ya gonna call?” A2Z Contractors! Our ever-reliable A2Z Contractors have demo-ed out the very large fan that sat high on the warehouse’s back […]
A Can of Paint… and a Good Painter!
“All it needs is a can of paint” to spruce up a room. We’ve all heard this. The unspoken end of that sentence is “and a good painter.” At this point in life you’re aware that paint doesn’t magically jump out of the can onto the walls… or ceilings… or wherever you want it. Your […]
This light fixture – just like the other
Remember that old Sesame Street song “One of these things is not like the others?” Here I’ll sing a revised version… “One of these things is JUST like the other!” Do you recognize this light fixture’s shade? While it’s a different color than you’ve seen before, it’s identical to one of a pair in the […]
