Breslin Builders has recently pulled the building permit for a new high end art gallery at the existing Town Square shopping center at Las Vegas Boulevard South and Sunset Road. Breslin Builders is providing design-build services (design and construction) for the nearly 6,000 square foot project. Working closely with the gallery owners, we are converting the existing two story PUMA shoe store into the new “Galleria Arte Fino” space, which will sell high end art work, sculptures, and other related items.

The two story space will have new display areas on both levels. understanding the owner has a budget to work within, Breslin Builders worked closely with our key subcontractors, and specifically GM Whitney Electric, to reuse as much of the existing lighting and other electrical features, to keep remodel cost down. We were able to reuse much of the existing track lighting on the main level, while adding a new less expensive system to the remodeled upper level, which was one PUMA’s storage room. Also as part of the design we worked around the existing in place restrooms, again to minimize the impact on the client’s budget. New paint, display walls, flooring, and other items needed to convert the existing shoe retail spaces into a high end art gallery are being provided. We are even providing two “swing walls” that can be swung out from the wall to create smaller display areas for various collections, provided flexibly use of the overall space.

This space, located at the heart of Town Square, will be their home base for future satellite facilities on the Las Vegas Strip, and bring a different venue to Town Square that they currently do not have. Construction is anticipated to be completed mid-January.
