Poynter Scifres Companies Opens Dramatic Offices @ 161/Walnut Hill Building
Bob Moore Construction Completes 106,800 SF Two-story Luxury Office Building in Las Colinas Area for Arlington, Texas Developer
ARLINGTON, TEXAS – January 25, 2008 - When Poynter Scifres Companies chose a location for their latest multi-story value office building, they focused on the Las Colinas area and the growing State Highway 161 corridor.
“We felt like there was a need for office space that offered larger floor plans and heavier parking in this area,” said Jim Poynter, Partner for Poynter Scifres Companies. “The location we chose is at the intersection of State Highway 161 and Walnut Hill Lane, which is the highest point in the Las Colinas area. We’re just outside the boundary of Las Colinas which gives us the best of both worlds as we’re in a great place for this type of office building but our clients will be able to do things with signage that they couldn’t do if we were in Las Colinas proper.”
Poynter Scifres chose Bob Moore Construction to take the lead as general contractor and Hardy McCullah / MLM Architects to design their new building, which was completed in December 2007.
The 106,800 SF Offices @ 161/Walnut Hill building adds a dramatic element to the Highway 161 corridor skyline. It features beige, textured walls with large banks of windows to provide maximum light to the interior. Each entrance to the lobby is showcased with a two-story, 41-foot curved curtain wall of glass. The main entrance also features a three-pillar stone-clad archway.
On the interior the lobby is finely finished in a high-end modern design style, with luxurious multi-finished tile, indirect ceiling lighting and wood accent trim on the walls and along the staircase. A curved grand staircase and elevator provide access to the second floor. The second floor features an expansive common area with curved windows, indirect lighting and accented carpeting. The building’s shell spaces include four rectangular “pods” that each offer nearly 27,000 square feet or together over 106,000 SF of unfinished office space.
“The curb appeal is great,” said Poynter. “With those 41-foot spans of glass at the entrances, it really has the wow factor for brokers and potential tenants when they first approach the building. This is as good looking a two-story office as we’ve been associated with.”
“This building showcases our ability to deliver an extraordinary office building,” said Ed McGuire, Vice President of Construction for Bob Moore Construction. “Hardy McCullah came up with a superb design to meet Poynter Scifres’ needs for luxury office space and our construction team did a tremendous job of bringing those designs to life. It’s always a pleasure working with Jim Poynter. He’s an established real estate professional with almost 30 years of experience, so he understands the construction process and provides clear and reasoned leadership from the developer’s perspective.”
“This is our third significant office building with Bob Moore Construction,” said Poynter. “We’ve come to know when those guys tell us they’ll do something, we can rely on it. Phillip Bell, Ed McGuire and their team members are consummate professionals. Bob Moore Construction has built all our value office products and hopefully will continue to do so.”

TDIndustries Named to Fortune Magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” List for 11th Consecutive Year
Dallas, TX, January 28, 2008 – For the eleventh consecutive year, TDIndustries has been named to Fortune Magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” list with a ranking of Number 35. This year’s achievement places TDIndustries in a unique, national spotlight as one of only 14 companies in the U.S. to have made the Fortune list since its inception in 1998. The company has been named to Fortune’s All Stars, the equivalent of a hall of fame.
According to TDIndustries’ CEO Harold MacDowell, “This recognition and our significant improvement over last year’s ranking speak highly of the men and women who contribute so much energy, enthusiasm and respect towards each other every day in their jobs. Making the list repeatedly is a tribute to our great teamwork environment and culture of servant leadership.”
Says MacDowell, “As a company that provides air conditioning, heating, ventilation, electrical, plumbing and other specialty contractor services to the commercial real estate industry, the ‘can-do’ spirit of our TDPartners means a lot, especially when you’re working outside in triple digit weather in Texas and Arizona.”
TDIndustries was one of only 13 companies in Texas to be selected by Fortune magazine. To celebrate the company’s accomplishment, MacDowell announced an additional, permanent half day holiday at Christmas to be enjoyed by all TDPartners during a special companywide videoconference last week. 

Larry Knox Chosen to Serve on QUOIN / AGC Board of Directors
Vice President of Preconstruction for Bob Moore Construction Named to Prestigious Industry Group
ARLINGTON, TEXAS – January 21, 2008 - Larry Knox, Vice President of Preconstruction for Bob Moore Construction, has been selected to serve on the board of directors for QUOIN, the north and east Texas chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC).
The AGC is the oldest and largest organization in the construction industry, going back to 1919. With over 1100 member companies, QUOIN is the AGC chapter for a large portion of Texas from Dallas / Fort Worth east to the Louisiana border, and north to the Oklahoma border.
QUOIN’s board of directors is comprised of 24 senior construction professionals in the area, and provides leadership, oversight and direction to the chapter. Initiatives taken on by the board include representing the industry’s interests in the development of federal, state and local legislation; driving better business practices in the community regarding environmental control, safety and productivity; working with community officials to improve business development opportunities in the region; and expanding the organization’s membership.
Larry Knox was chosen from the several thousand employees with QUOIN’s 1,100+ members to serve as a member of the organization’s board. He will serve on the board for a three-year term, running through 2010.
Mr. Knox has been a highly respected industry professional for 35 years, and a member of AGC for 18 years. Most recently, he managed two successful Region V Student Design/Build Competitions for QUOIN.
“This is a tremendous honor and a great opportunity,” said Mr. Knox. “I have always felt that being a member of AGC sets us apart. AGC members have tremendous educational programs in a variety of construction-related subjects, from safety to professional development and superintendent training, to LEED Green Building standards. In Texas, QUOIN has a tremendous positive impact on our industry, and our communities as well. By joining QUOIN you are making a commitment to standards of conduct and ethics that are invaluable to our clients, our employees and the industry. AGC members are seen as better trained and more professional than other companies, and I believe there’s a good reason for that. I’m excited to be a part of the board and support the chapter’s continued efforts for the next three years.”
“I feel that QUOIN has made an outstanding choice in the selection of Larry Knox to their board of directors,” said Phillip Bell, President of Bob Moore Construction. “Larry is widely recognized by our employees, subcontractors and developers as an industry expert and leader of great stature and integrity. For as long as I’ve known him he has been a passionate, devoted advocate for the AGC as well. I’m confident Larry will prove to be a huge asset to QUOIN over the next three years.
“Larry’s acceptance to the board says a great deal about our standing in the local industry and our commitment to the ideals of QUOIN and AGC as well,” Mr. Bell added. “Our business values, to continually improve our operations, to maintain safe work environments, to represent the industry with integrity, all of those priorities we live by mirror the AGC standards of Skill, Integrity and Responsibility. In previous years we have established our ‘AGC bona fides’ with our selection as General Contractor of the Year, our various Summit and Outstanding Construction Awards and our extensive involvement with QUOIN’s safety program. I think Larry stepping in to a leadership position within the organization is a very logical, positive next step for QUOIN and for us.”
Highland Builders, Inc. Announces New Division Head

Dallas-based Ray F. Skiles Co., Inc. celebrates its 35th anniversary
DALLAS – Dallas’ construction industry may have experienced plenty of highs and lows over the years, but one local company, general contractor Ray F. Skiles Co., Inc., has grown and thrived whatever the economic conditions. And the late fourth quarter of 2007 marks the 35th anniversary of Skiles Construction’s incorporation.
“We aren’t a company that usually brags about itself, but we are proud of our accomplishments and want to share our big news,” said Jimmy Mays, who founded the company along with Ray F. Skiles and Glenn Nihart. “Construction can be fun if you like the people you work with and you maintain good relationships with your clients and their consultants.”
The company started out building schools and other institutional-type buildings and was soon asked to construct the Montgomery Ward store in Dallas’ now-demolished Prestonwood mall. Within two years, the company was on the select-bid list for about 30 percent of the jobs it received.
“Getting that Montgomery Ward project was quite a boon for us and it was followed by work on some pretty large schools, such as Brentfield Elementary School in Richardson and Jackson Elementary School in Plano, as well as a public library for the city of Dallas,” Mays said.
Skiles Construction also received work from Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas and has done several projects for the medical center over the decades. More recently, Skiles Construction finished construction of a $31 million bed tower for Harris Methodist Southwest Hospital.
Medical projects constitute the majority of Skiles Construction’s work now and 90 percent of its projects come from repeat business. Arlington-based Ascension Group Architects and Dallas-based HKS, Inc. are two of several architecture firms that frequently work with Skiles Construction.
“We have completed major hospital expansions and new facilities with equal success,” said Rod Booze, Ascension’s managing principal. “Skiles Construction’s leadership is exceptional and everyone at the company excels at partnering with designers, owners and building trades to complete projects on time and on budget.”
“Working with Skiles for so many years has spoiled me quite honestly, said Brent Sparks, vice president at HKS. “I expect other contracting firms to have the same high level of experience, same core values and same attention to quality. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.”
Sparks added: “HKS and its clients can always count on Skiles Construction to stand behind its word and its products.”
Clay Harrison joined Skiles Construction in 1987 as a partner, adding state-of-the-art technology at a time when the construction industry was evolving.
“We are constantly striving to update and evolve our processes to match the changing environment and technology,” Harrison said.
The company, which saw Ray Skiles retire in 1983, now is known for large-scale health care projects. Dwayne Hodges, the firm’s newest partner, said the company has more than 15 projects under way in Texas.
“As we go forward, we hope to continue to add more health care, church, private school and fitness center projects to our roster,” Hodges said. “Health care, in particular, is a strong market nationwide for construction and is showing no signs of slowing down.”

Hill & Wilkinson, Ltd. Opens New Office in Central Texas; Projects in Austin and San Antonio Spur General Contractor’s Growth
Dallas, TX, December 13, 2007 – Hill & Wilkinson, Ltd. today announced that it has opened a new Central Texas office in Austin, Texas.  The strategic location combined with the firm’s growth in both the San Antonio and Austin markets contributed to the decision to expand.
According to Mr. Dick Johnson, senior vice president of Hill & Wilkinson and leader of the Central Texas office, “Many of our Dallas/Fort Worth clients have projects in these markets.  We’ve seen exponential growth in the healthcare, retail and office/ warehouse sectors in which we have deep experience. We are also one of the few general contractors who can self-perform, so the timing makes good business sense.”
During the past five years, Hill & Wilkinson has closed on approximately $55 million in new construction projects in Austin and San Antonio.   Among the company’s customers are Stream, Transwestern and Southwest Airlines, all of whom are common to these markets, as well as JCPenney and Havertys Fine Furniture.
Hill & Wilkinson’s Deren Wilcox will manage business development for the Central Texas office, and Kristy Attaway, LEED ® AP, will be responsible for estimating and sub-contractor relationships. 
Executive vice presidents Paul Driscoll and Doug Talley at Hill & Wilkinson’s corporate office in Plano, Texas will guide the company’s growth in its key market sectors, including manufacturing/mission critical, institutional and hospitality/senior living, aviation, healthcare, office building, retail and warehouse/distribution.
