Local Building Earns
Construction Award
October 31, 2006
By AMEERAH CETAWAYO, The
Daily News
Newly constructed
buildings speak to the
changing landscape of
architecture in
southcentral Kentucky.
A Bowling Green building
recently garnered an
award for a Tennessee
builder.
On Friday, Brindley
Construction of Pulaski,
Tenn., received the
Associated Builders and
Contractors Excellence
in
Construction award for
construction of the new
office for local dentist
Dr. Eli Jackson in
Chandler Park.
Brindley will now enter
the building in the
National ABC EIC award
competition in December.
Kathy Pigg, vice
president of Brindley
Construction, said the
company is gearing up
for the national
competition and plans to
turn in its entries by
mid-November.
Pigg described the Eli
Jackson Dental Clinic as
a 5,800-square-foot
dental office with
state-of-the-art dental
equipment and
design.
There is no wasted space
in the building,
according to Pigg.
The lobby and reception
area consists of an
octagon-shaped room 40
feet across with a
vaulted ceiling topped
by a circular
clerestory. And there
are plenty of high-tech
luxuries in the office.
Jackson uses
Hitcents.com's EyeOn
technology, which allows
him to turn on or off
all lights, control
temperature and monitor
all surveillance cameras
from in-office computers
or from his home
computer.
This system will also
call the doctor's cell
phone if a fire or
security alarm activates
or a water leak occurs.
The building also
contains a sterilization
room, employee lounge
and laundry room.
There are computer
stations for patient use
and refreshment areas
for patients.
Each operating room is
equipped with a 42-inch
plasma monitor fully
integrated with a
computer control
allowing the doctor to
show patient X-rays and
pictures from inside the
patient's mouth as he's
working.
When not used by
physicians, the plasma
screen can be remote
controlled by the
patient for movies,
games or cable
programming.
Jackson, along with his
new associate Dr. Brad
Graham, was previously
in the Bowling Green
Professional Arts
Building on
U.S. 31-W By-Pass.
“It's something that we
had a vision about for a
long time,” Jackson
said. “It's taken us a
few years to bring all
the pieces of the
puzzle together, but
we're really are all
about making things
comfortable for the
patient.”
The dentists moved into
their new building Oct.
6.
Jackson said his new
building coincides with
his company's
state-of-the-art
service.
“We're just proud to be
able to offer that type
of dentistry to people
in the surrounding
counties,” Jackson said.
“Since I
bought the office 13
years ago, it’s been a
10-fold growth.” |
