90 / BUILDING DIALOGUE / June 2020 has been largely dormant since UCHSC’s departure in 2007. “Every time we complete a building it is an event, but the journey of getting there is just as important and that’s about people and process,” continues Kelner. “We are very committed to the success of our people and spend a lot of time and effort on professional development and training opportunities. We have a training university in Omaha and standardized procures and controls for everything we do.” Beginning and ending with its “Nobody Gets Hurt” safety philosophy, over generations of work Kiewit has continual- ly tested, measured, refined and documented processes for every aspect of engineering, building, and starting up the work they build. Looking forward, Kelner is excited about Kiewit’s future in Colorado. “We will work toward completing Phase I of our new re- gional headquarters campus in Lone Tree for an anticipated opening in summer 2021,” shares Kelner. Showcasing the full range of abilities of Kiewit Corp., the firm is designing, developing and delivering a next-level corporate campus initiated by a five-story, 250,000-sf smart building accompa- nied by a 1,000-stall parking structure. Phase II anticipates another 150,000-sf office building with space onsite for addi- tional growth in the future. Located directly adjacent to the Sky Ridge Light Rail Sta- tion, Kiewit employees will soon take advantage of Ridge- Gate’s multimodal connectivity and burgeoning live, work, play lifestyle. Understanding that culture drives behavior, Kiewit and many other top-tier market leaders recognize why Colorado continues to attract and retain an exception- al workforce. “Colorado is awesome; the people are very educated, very enlightened and very entrepreneurial in many different markets,” he says of workforce positives. “Consolidating roughly 900 Kiewit employees from several dispersed offic- es into a dynamic 21st century campus attached to a walk- able district will help us continue to attract the best-of-the- best so we can continue to build the best-of-the-best.” \\ / Kiewit: Since 1884 / TOP (LEFT AND RIGHT): Market Station is the redevelopment of the bus terminal and street-level plaza at 16th and Market streets.
