Nicklaus Clubhouse at Reunion Resort & Golf Club

CASE STUDY:

Nicklaus Clubhouse

Scope: 

Ground up construction of 16,460 SF Spanish Monterrey style clubhouse overlooking the Nicklaus Course 18th Green, complete with proshop, offices, sales center, fitness room, restaurant, bar and basement-level golf cart storage. Site work included utility, parking, hardscape, landscape and irrigation. 

Challenges: 

Discrepancies in drawings sets did not delay this build, nor did the delicate sitework which had to work around the Florida Gas Transmission Pipeline which feeds the entire west coast of Florida and was located 25 feet from the corner of the clubhouse.  JK2 value engineered various materials and finish selections to satisfy the owner’s design intent. Despite a shut down of the municipality mid project and delayed inspections of structural components as a result, the project delivered on time. 

Canyons Community Amenities

The Canyons at Highland Ranch

JK2 Construction, a leader in the Central Florida construction industry, recently completed work on a luxury amenity center in the booming city of Clermont.

The amenity center is part of Taylor Morrison’s Canyons at Highland Ranch development. The project features a cabana, pool, splash pad and dog parks. In addition to these amenities, JK2 Construction also created volleyball, basketball and tennis courts for residents.

The amenity center JK2 Construction built offers something for all residents, whether they want to relax and unwind with family and pets or get active on the court.

This is the first project JK2 Construction has completed with Taylor Morrison. Thanks to its success, the two companies have continued their partnership, with multiple projects already in the works.

“Taylor Morrison is known for building homes tailored to the needs of residents,” said Paul Holmes, JK2 Construction’s president and founder. “Our efficient, quality building approach allowed us to produce a luxurious amenity center quickly and affordably while they focus on constructing homes their clients will love. We look forward to growing this partnership.”

Ruby Lake Community Amenities

CASE STUDY:

Ruby Lake Amenity Center

Scope:

Constructing the Ruby Lake Amenity Complex facilitated space for this upscale community to engage and relax with a new clubhouse, pool, splash pad, fire pit, sports courts, mail kiosk and dock. 5,241SF clubhouse overlooks beautiful Ruby Lake and includes a porch with seating areas and covered walkway, community room, fitness center, offices and restaurants for guests. A large community pool of 2,377SF has an adjacent and separate splash pad. The project finished with the construction of a 75FT dock for residents to enjoy their lake. 

Challenges:

This project encompassed a time sensitive 6-month timeline to meet the client’s schedule so the first phases of houses could be sold. The lake adjacent to the property is a nature preserve, so extensive dealings with the EPA regarding the environmental impacts of the project were coordinated and managed and fulfilled. At contract acceptance finishes were not selected, so JK2 worked diligently in assisting the owner to procure and determine the finishes.
