The Brio Apartments – Parking Structure

The Conco Companies served as the General Contractor on the parking structure for the new Brio apartment complex in Walnut Creek, CA.  The developer and builder for the 300-unit apartments is SummerHill Homes, a nationally-recognized home builder in the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California.  The Brio is located on a 5-acre site and offers 1 and 2-bedroom apartments for rent that range in sizes from 667 to 1,051 square feet. 

As the General Contractor on the project, Conco constructed a five-story; cast-in-place parking structure that has parking for 471 vehicles and includes chargers for electric vehicles.  We placed 159,028 sq ft of concrete and used 750,000 of reinforced steel.  By the time the project was finished, we had used 5,000 cu yd of concrete and 1,500 cu yd of shotcrete. 

     

The property is located only four blocks from BART and is within easy walking distance to downtown Walnut Creek and the Broadway Plaza Shopping Center.  The apartments feature a clubhouse with a media room, kitchen, and a separate lounge area.  A rooftop outdoor terrace offers residents a great view of Mt. Diablo.  A central courtyard offers a large swimming pool and spa, 5 outdoor kitchens and dining areas as well as a ping-pong table and natural lawn. 

As a focal point for the outside of the Brio leasing office, SummerHill Homes commissioned a cylindrical shaped metal art piece by Phillip K. Smith, III from Indio, California.  The city of Walnut Creek’s Art Commission participated in the design selection and approval process.
