Integrated Builders breaks ground on daycare at Riverbridge North: 12,500 s/f The Growing Room Child Development Center

Groundbreaking ceremonies were held for a new standalone daycare facility to be constructed by Integrated Builders at Riverbridge North, the 470,000 s/f mixed use community village. Project developer Matthew Senie of Riverbridge North LLC was joined by Jay Dacey, president of Integrated Bldrs.; state rep. Harold Naughton, Jr.; SVP of operations Brad Haines and COO Brittany Haines of Growing Room Child Development Centers; Donald Powers, president of Union Studio Architecture; and members of the town planning board. "We're delighted to be getting our second building underway at the Riverbridge North village and to be working with such a highly regarded construction manager as Integrated Builders," said Senie. The 12,500 s/f facility will be home to the Georgia-based daycare franchise Growing Room and is expected to be completed in mid-October at a cost of $2.4 million. Located at 65 River Road West, the center will provide care and education for children ranging in age from 7 weeks to 12 years old. The building will be the second structure at Riverbridge North, which upon completion will be comprised of 130,000 s/f of neighborhood commercial space (office, retail, restaurant, market, pharmacy, convenience store/gas station); a 175,000 s/f continuing care retirement community (CCRC) or assisted living facility; and 115 one, two and three bedroom apartments and condominiums. "We're looking forward to collaborating with the Riverbridge North development team on the construction of this facility as well as others as the village community continues to develop," said Dacey.
