Project Involves Construction of New Polished Concrete & Storefront

BAXTER, Minn. (June 7, 2012) – Eidco Construction, one of the fastest growing commercial construction management companies in the United States, today announced that the firm has been retained by Lexington Realty International to oversee a 4,700-square-foot interior fit-out for retailer rue21 at the Westgate Mall in Brainerd and Baxter, Minnesota.

Project Manager Edward Bogacki and Superintendent Michael Schreifels are working with the rue21 team on the project, which is expected to be complete in June. The fit-out includes constructing a new storefront, and interior partitions, electrical and lighting installation, the addition of a new washroom, polished concrete floor as well as completing graphics, displays and signage.

Rue21 currently has over 800 stores nationwide and offers a broad assortment of the newest emerging fashion trends in apparel and accessories for girls and guys. Using a competitive pricing strategy, rue21 makes a specific, unique statement by offering fashion at a value.
