Riverchase Renovation

As part of an overall renovation of the Riverchase Galleria, CMH developed a phased renovation of the mall concourses, center court, restrooms, and parking decks. This beautiful image shows the innovative fabric design at work in the cavernous, skylighted food court. It adds tons of “color and interest” to the space.

The parking deck renovations include aesthetic and lighting upgrades and replacement/upgrade of existing stairs ‐ all phased to meet City code requirements and the mall’s holiday schedules. Improvements are carefully coordinated with mall activities. The use of 3D surveying was used to augment poor existing building drawings. SketchUp modeling of the Food Court and Revit Modeling of the drainage system for the building was performed.
