They’ve demonstrated a strong commitment to addressing the housing shortage in their community by finding suitable land and creating a straightforward development process, making projects like SCS Sunset Estates possible. We look forward to the grand opening next year and are excited for future development opportunities in Sturgeon Bay.”
During the ceremony, a $1,000 donation was made to the nonprofit organization, Operation Not Alone in celebration of the S.C. Swiderski’s 30th anniversary. In total, $30,000 will be donated this year to non-profits across S.C. Swiderski’s apartment locations. Operation Not Alone was chosen by S.C. Swiderski employees to receive the donation for their Sturgeon Bay location. Susan Fochs, founder and CEO of Operation Not Alone was present to accept the donation. Following the ceremony, guests were invited to enjoy some snacks and drinks provided by S.C. Swiderski.
S.C. Swiderski is excited to become a part of the Sturgeon Bay community. They will provide a variety of maintenance-free housing options at a wide range of price points adding much needed housing in the area. S.C. Swiderski will work with local subcontractors, tradespeople, and laborers on this project as well as utilizing local suppliers and lenders whenever possible. S.C. Swiderski promises to be an active member of the Sturgeon Bay community for the long-term by adding property management jobs on-site and contributing to local charitable organizations through their CAS Committee.
Professional Women in Building Week
Professional Women in Building Week celebrates women as an important part of the residential construction industry. At S.C. Swiderski, women make up a large portion of our leadership team as well as many teams throughout the company. Sierra Braun, one of the Architectural Drafters here at S.C. Swiderski, wrote about her experience.
“Working in the construction industry has always been a dream of mine, specifically in architectural design. I strive to soak up as much knowledge as I can from those around me, actively building my foundation for becoming an Architect. Watching a project go from a napkin sketch to reality will never get old. Each project brings more opportunities to learn and develop both myself and my teammates. Being a key player in guiding the design from development through construction is challenging but extremely rewarding, and it is super exciting to work at a company with so much growth and opportunity within reach,” says Braun.
Sierra has been with SCS for 1 year and is an integral part of our success, along with all of our employees. As the building industry is typically a male dominated industry, SCS has a female site superintendent, 2 female project managers, a female field manager, female general laborers and many other female employees who are an essential part of the success of SCS. SCS is proud to hire a diverse group of people and we can't thank our employees enough for their hard work. As we celebrate Professional Women in Building Week, we invite everyone to take a moment to reflect on the history of women in the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) field and the bright future they have with SCS.
