CORRECTING and REPLACING Rudolph and Sletten Named for Preconstruction Services for 9900 Wilshire Condominium Project

CORRECTION...by Rudolph and Sletten, Inc.

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Please replace the release dated July 31, 2008 with the following corrected version due to changes to the fifth graph.

“The 9900 Wilshire development represents a new paradigm in quality for residential construction”

The corrected release reads:

RUDOLPH AND SLETTEN NAMED FOR PRECONSTRUCTION SERVICES FOR 9900 WILSHIRE CONDOMINIUM PROJECT

Rudolph and Sletten, Inc. announced today that it has been awarded the preconstruction services contract for the proposed luxury condominium project ‘9900 Wilshire’ positioned on Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills. The site is owned by Project Lotus LLC, a joint venture between CPC Group, the Guernsey, UK-based property development business owned by Christian Candy and Kaupthing HF, the largest Icelandic bank.

The site, situated in the heart of one of the country’s most prestigious neighborhoods, will require detailed logistics sequencing and preplanning to minimize the impact to the community. In preparation for the new towers, Rudolph and Sletten will also be responsible for moving a water pipe that feeds the city of Santa Monica. This new pipe system has been ordered and is currently in fabrication. The construction activities will commence following its arrival. A great emphasis will be placed on mitigating traffic, noise, and other environmental effects during construction.

The iconic project includes 235 luxurious and environmentally responsible condominiums that will be constructed within two residential towers overlooking the west entrance to Beverly Hills on the site of the former Robinsons-May Department store. The project will be built to achieve a Gold Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standard, one of the highest recognitions from the U.S. Green Building Council.

The complex is being designed by world-renowned architects Richard Meier and Partners. It won the American Institute of Architects Architectural Design Award in 2007. Exclusive interior design company Candy & Candy, Inc. has been appointed as development managers and will be leading the interior design.

The development is positioned within one third of the eight-acre site and includes extensive private and public gardens designed by Olin Partnership, internationally acclaimed landscape architects.

The new residences will offer extensive amenities appropriate to such a luxurious address including concierge service, valet parking, and fitness spa facilities. The project aims to consume 25% less energy, use 50% less water, and create less greenhouse emissions than comparable residential buildings.

“The 9900 Wilshire development represents a new paradigm in quality for residential construction,” said Rudolph and Sletten Project Executive John McRitchie. “We are fully engaged in preplanning all aspects of the project to bring this award-winning Richard Meier and Partners design to fruition.

“Our dedication to safety and community during construction complements the 9900 Wilshire commitment to smoothly integrate into this vibrant and historical area,” McRitchie added. “Rudolph and Sletten’s leadership in quality management and implementation will ensure that this project successfully represents the world-renowned reputation of the Candy & Candy brand.”

The construction quality of the condominiums will be exacting in its precision and unique in its material selection. The façade of the buildings will have large areas of specialized glazing, terracotta panels, and finished concrete. The visionary interior design developed by Candy & Candy transcends traditional luxury to create a lifestyle environment of the utmost sophistication.
