JOB PROGRESS REPORT
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
Fortunato Construction was selected to build the new Dakota
Restaurant located on Silas Deane Highway in Rocky Hill,
Connecticut. The 10,000 square foot building offers seating for
approximately 300 persons and was designed in the "Adirondak-
style" for which the chain has become familiar. The restaurant is
owned by Hospitality Well Done and Dave Melincoff, President,
stated, "We express our great appreciation to Fortunato for their
willingness to accommodate our constant design changes and
creative input. They were remarkable to work with on this
project." Job Superintendent for Fortunato was Mike Steinbrecher.
Renovations and historic restoration will be completed in early
spring on a three-story office building for the engineering firm
of Fuss & O'Neill. Job Superintendent is Bob Wheeler and
architectural services have been provided by FLB Architecture
& Planning, Inc..
