The new Home 2 Suites in Bethlehem, PA, is a 73,442-square-foot extended stay hotel offering 117 units, conveniently located near the Lehigh Valley Airport and just off Route 22. The hotel is a wood-framed structure situated on a 2.99-acre parcel that features upgraded onsite underground infiltration beds, installed under approximately 50% of the new parking lot and driveways. This infrastructure enhancement ensures efficient water management, contributing to the property's sustainability efforts.

This four-story hotel caters to both long- and short-term guests with a range of amenities designed for comfort and convenience. Guests can enjoy an indoor pool, fitness facilities, and laundry services, alongside a breakfast service and the Hilton Home 2 marketplace. Outdoor patios at the front and rear of the building offer seating, tables, grills, and a gas fire pit for relaxation. Each guest room is equipped with queen or king beds, full bathrooms, and kitchenettes featuring dishwashers, refrigerators, and microwaves. The hotel also includes onsite management offices, maintenance and storage rooms, and comprehensive support staff areas equipped with industrial washers and dryers, a security system, and individual fire management systems for each guest room.

The Queen Street project site spanned 3.89 acres in downtown Lancaster, consisting of two lots. Lot 1 housed a historical building that required demolition, while Lot 2 featured a neglected parking lot, overgrown with weeds. The site transformation was remarkable, turning a previously abandoned area into a revitalized space. What once appeared forgotten amidst one of downtown Lancaster's main roads was given new life.

The 4-story building featured a façade of brick veneer, fiber cement, and metal panels. The second and third floors on the Queen Street side and the parking lot side were composed entirely of curtain walls, lending the building a modern appearance. Despite this, the brick veneer maintained Lancaster’s traditional aesthetic, making the building seem as if it had always been part of the cityscape. This project breathed new life into one of the city's oldest areas.

The renovation of Armstrong Building 402 in Lancaster, PA, encompassing 43,211 square feet of ground floor commercial office space, product showcase areas, and a customer training center, showcases meticulous design, environmental consciousness, and innovative features such as advanced HVAC systems, sustainable material sourcing, and unique ceiling and wall systems to create a revitalized and functional workspace.

It is next door to a grocery store and within walking distance of churches, shops, restaurants and Central Market.

The seven-story building features many amenities for its urban residents.

Completed in June of 2022, this 47,000 SF renovated building includes a shell and fitout space for Penn State Health Pediatrics.

This 8-story, 414,000 square foot, two-tone precast parking garage, featuring 1,241 parking spaces, an indoor and outdoor shuttle waiting area and two passenger elevators, was built to support the ever-expanding Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing site located in Lancaster, PA, just 15 minutes North of downtown Lancaster City. This BioPharmaceutical and Medical Device testing facility is part of the largest network of harmonized GMP testing laboratories across the globe.

Unstable ground conditions and subsurface caverns required the garage to be built on concrete foundations supported by 287 concrete-encased steel micropiles that anchored into bedrock below the surface, sometimes at depths in excess of 150 linear feet. This, combined with a high water-table, posed continuous challenges in creating effective stability for the building to begin vertical construction.

This facility was built in a uniquely collaborative effort between High Construction (providing construction management services), High Concrete, High Erectors and High Transit, with each piece of precast concrete being touched by approximately 100 of High's esteemed personnel. This project is recognized as the first of many collaborative projects to come.
