Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

WORKERS yesterday stopped demolishing a controversial R8.1-million Kenton-on-Sea mansion after it emerged the Ndlambe Municipality had not yet approved its demolition.

Owner Matthew Lester yesterday said he was absolutely stunned to hear that he was illegally breaking down the house despite being given a six-month Supreme Court of Appeal order late last year to demolish it by June 6 this year.

The Rhodes University tax expert, who is also a popular columnist and financial whiz, was reacting to comments to the Daily Dispatch by Ndlambe Municipalitys attorney Brin Brody.

Brody, of Wheeldon, Rushmere & Cole Attorneys in Grahamstown, said that any demolition taking place was without the approval of the municipality.

The [Ndlambe municipal] council is currently considering his architects motivation of how the proposed demolition will take place. Until approval is given he cannot demolish anything.

Lester yesterday said he had decided to stop the demolition although one-and-a-half months of the SCA six-month deadline had already passed.

I am absolutely stunned. Brin Brody was informed by my architect Francois Theron two weeks ago about the demolition and he is deliberately making it [the demolition] as nasty as he can.

Senior communications officer at Ndlambe, Cecil Mbolekwa, said: The meeting that was to consider the demolishing plan was to be held on 30 January 2014 but did not take place. The planned meeting is now scheduled to take place on February 27.

Demolition on mansion stopped

Demolition of the Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis is expected to resume within days.

The task of taking down the former home of the Minnesota Vikings football team was halted Monday afternoon when a portion of the building fell out of sequence, according to Mortenson Construction, which is the construction manager for the new stadium project.

Mortenson spokesman Cam Snyder said Tuesday that work may resume within the next day or two. Crews will definitely be back at it sometime this week, he added.

While crews were demolishing a ring beam section on the Metrodomes northeast side at about 1 p.m. Monday, an adjacent ring beam fell out of sequence, Mortenson senior vice president John Wood said in a statement Monday afternoon.

No one was injured and no equipment was damaged, and all debris fell within the specified safety zone, Wood added. Demolition activity was put on hold while engineers and demolition contractors investigated.

Foundation work on other areas of the project site had already resumed, Wood said Monday.

The Metrodome is being razed to make way for the new $975 million Vikings stadium. Golden Valley-based Mortenson is the construction manager and Little Canada-based Frattalone Cos. is the demolition subcontractor.

Demolition was moving along quickly until the setback on Monday afternoon.

Last Thursday, a wrecking ball attached to a mobile crane smashed into the northeast exterior of the building. It worked alongside a high-reach excavator, which tore off large sections of exterior metal.

The buildings roof was deflated in mid-January and cables that supported the roof were subsequently imploded.

Metrodome demolition to resume by weeks end

The city of Shenandoah will soon be home to a new planned community as Houston-based Pelican Builders plans to construct a new 98-home community off Vision Park Boulevard.

The gated community, called Boulevard Green at Vision Park, will sit on about 11 acres of land with access to Vision Park Boulevard and Country Lane through Pine Forest Drive.

Derek Darnell, vice president of Pelican Builders, said construction on infrastructure like streets and utilities should begin by May.

For the past few years, the company has built communities within Houston and the Sugar Land area and has also expanded into The Woodlands with EastGate and Ellipse Park in The Woodlands.

In general, weve been a developer of well-planned, urban-oriented gated enclaves around the Houston area, Darnell said. Its kind of a common theme for us. Were not necessarily a custom home builder and not really a single-family home builder.

While amenities for the community are currently tentative as developers continue gathering data from the area, Darnell said the group is exploring possible amenities like a pool and a cabana for resident use. However, he emphasized the company is still collecting marketing feedback and the refinement of certain features like common amenities is not set in stone yet.

The homes will continue the style of architecture seen in the East Shore of The Woodlands where Ellipse Park resides, Darnell said. The company is working with New Orleans-based architect George Hopkins to offer homes with a distinct southern style and a New Orleans feel, featuring antique brick, porches and lights styled like old gas lanterns.

Pricing for the homes will range from $500,000 to $700,000, Darnell said. Home construction is scheduled to begin in August with the first occupants moving in around spring of 2015.

Pelican Builders continues building new communities in The Woodlands area, particularly due to its growth and welcoming residents, Darnell said. The particular land available at Vision Park Boulevard also offers easy access not only to The Woodlands but also to Interstate 45.

It was really the growth of the ... area combined with Vision Park Boulevard evolving into a new and exciting street and hub for communities and businesses, Darnell said.
