Grand Opening for Jordan's Furniture in New Haven, First in CT

KBE Building Corp. celebrated the grand opening of Jordan's Furniture in New Haven on Friday, December 11.

KBE Building Corp. celebrated the grand opening of Jordan’s Furniture in New Haven on Friday, December 11, along with some very eager local residents. KBE served as Construction Manager at Risk for the $17 million renovation, which began construction in April. Access Construction is the Owner’s Representative.

Located at 40 Sargent Drive in New Haven, Jordan’s Furniture proved to be a very unique project for the $300 million construction firm, as it features the “World’s Largest Ropes Course.” The ropes course, designed by Ropes Courses, Inc., is just one way Jordan’s Furniture attends to its entertainment package feature.

In addition to this extravagant ropes course, KBE Building Corp., with the help of Waltzing Waters, supported the design and construction of a Las Vegas-style fountain equipped with lasers and a light show.
