This undertaking involved major renovations and additions to an existing pre-engineered structure to create a Family Shelter for Ohio homeless families. The new Shelter provides individual family dorm-style rooms, bathing, dining, gathering, and administrative areas. The facility’s new second floor increases the overall size from 22,000 square feet to nearly 41,000 square feet of space.
Ruscilli Construction has been selected to construct Phase IIA and Phase IIB for the Poindexter Village Redevelopment project.
Phase IIA and IIB consist of 170 residential units in 25 new buildings along with a free-standing maintenance building for a total of 200,000 square feet on approximately 10-acres. The new apartments include one, two and three bedroom units in several building types: two-story townhouses, two and three-story garden-style buildings, and a three story mixed use building with flat-style apartments, live/work units and management/community space on the first floor.

The exterior finish will be a combination of masonry, fiber-cement siding and metal panels with vinyl windows and asphalt shingle and TPO membrane roofing.
