Schimenti Construction Company is in the midst of building its first project for Under Armour to create UA’s first premium Brand House store in the Big Apple, scheduled for April. Located at 583 Broadway in Soho, the project is a complete gut and rebuild that will create almost 13,000 square feet of retail space on two levels, as well as 8,000 square feet of stock room and offices. The project features a dramatic steel-clad and glass staircase by Amuneal, a complete replacement of all mechanical systems, including four new indoor air-cooled split units, and associated ductwork. Schimenti also is replacing the electrical systems and installing new LED lighting throughout the sales floor, and making the bathrooms on the sales floor ADA-compliant. The site, formerly occupied by Esprit, is a historical cast-iron building under the jurisdiction of the Landmark Preservation Commission. The project architect is FRCH Design Worldwide and the design architect is ATI Architects and Engineers.
