Dairy Queen – Charter Colony under construction

Jan 29, 2021

Our second Dairy Queen we had the pleasure of designing is now under construction. The first project we completed, Dairy Queen Harmony Square, featured many innovative green strategies. However we stayed true to the corporate design with some minor modifications to allow for additional cake freezers.

However, Charter Colony has a design control district that does not allow for corporate design. It was a challenge to work through the process to develop something that fit their criteria, but we did it and construction has started.

This beautiful one-story Dairy Queen located in Charter Colony will feature cathedral ceilings in the dining room, a large front patio, and of course blizzards!

On my last visit to the site the foundation work was well underway and the under slab piping was being installed. I cannot wait to see where they are at in the coming weeks!

Like most construction during a pandemic, this job has faced so many challenges to get underway. I am thankful for clients that are continuing to move their projects forward and for allowing us to be part of them.
