Swinerton Builders completes cast-in-place concrete structure Alliance Construction starts RRCU headquartersAlliance Construction Solu-
tions commenced construction
of Red Rocks Credit Union’s
corporate headquarters in Little-
ton.
The two-story, 28,000-square-
foot building, designed by
Path21Architecture, is located at
8195 Southpark Lane.
The building will serve as a
“generational” building for the
RRCU and help attract talent
and provide a leading-edge col-
laborative work environment
for the employees, according to
Alliance Construction Solutions.
“We couldn’t be more pleased
to be part of this team,” said
Casey Paulson, chief estimator
at Alliance Construction Solu-
tions. “Budget is always a pri-
mary concern. At Alliance, we
strive to create collaborative
environments that allow us to
work closely with the project
team to provide detailed cost
analysis and scheduling servic-
es to bring projects within the
client’s budget. Along with Path
21 Architecture, we have accom-
plished this for the Red Rocks
Credit Union headquarters.”

Adolfson & Peterson Con-
struction started construction
on a new joint training facility
for the city of Aurora.
The project, designed for col-
laboration, will combine the
city of Aurora’s police and fire
departments into one training
facility that will provide better
training for emergency situa-
tions in which both depart-
ments are required to respond.
Currently, the city has more
than 670 police officers and
more than 340 firefighters and
has not had a joint training
facility in more than 35 years.
The design-build project
includes a 40,000-square-foot
education and training build-
ing with office and conference
areas. The 23-acre campus also
will include a 7,000-sf, five-
story drill tower structure,
an on-site pump house and a
3,500-sf Class A burn building.
The new facility also will have
an internal circulation system
designed for clean versus dirty
traffic flow.
Studiotrope is the architect
on the project.
The site also can accom-
modate future growth plans,
including a 7,700-sf tactical/
search/rescue structure, a
34,500-sf, five-building tacti-
cal village and a training site
that features vehicle extrica-
tions, trench simulation and
HAZMAT training.
“A&P is honored to be build-
ing this facility that will help
our service members save
lives,” commented Tom Horst-
ing, A&P’s vice president. “Our
office is located in Aurora, and

ect in our own community.”
The facility is set for comple-
tion in November.
