Construction Updates for Projects in the Neighborhood

Montgomery Center Update!
TideLock - Construction Progresses!
The structure “ topped out” in January and the two , large tower cranes have come down. The building exterior is going on now, and we expect to be “closed in” by June. At that point, the work will really shift to the interior all the way up to completion next February.” – Ryan J. Whitaker, Whitaker Facilities Corp., Whitaker Investments Corp.

The Tidelock construction update is as follows: Over the next few months, the focus of construction activities will be completing the building’s facade and installation of the building’s interior finishes. Generally speaking, there will be an increase in deliveries into / out of the jobsite as we bring in material and haul out debris. This shouldn’t impact the neighbors, but is more so to give you an idea of what activities will be taking place over the coming months. There are 2 planned activities that may affect neighboring tenants:

  • 3/28-3/29: Tower crane removal. This work will take place the last weekend in March, where we will be disassembling the last tower crane. This will require a smaller “assist’ crane to be brought to site and temporary staging along N Fairfax (just in front of the site) as parts of the crane are removed.
  • Late April-early May: At some point in this timeframe, we are expecting Dominion to set and energize the project’s transformer. This will require a power outage as the connections are made, which may impact the properties adjacent to the Tidelock site. I am waiting on Dominion to provide more details about when the outage will happen, how long it will take, and what properties will be affected. I will pass along those details to you as they become available.
425 Montgomery Street - Update: April 2025

In the month of April, we will continue trucking/hauling soils off-site throughout our mass excavation operations. Pile driving operations for the support of excavation is expected to be complete by the 1st or 2nd week of April and lagging for the support of excavation will continue throughout the month.

Installation of dewatering wells/system will continue throughout the month of April. Along the Montgomery Park side of N. Royal Street utility work will be nearing completion this month. Once this utility work is completed, parking along N. Royal street, against the park, will be reopened to the public. At the Northeast corner of the jobsite along N. Royal Street, we will be pouring concrete to form the permanent retaining walls for a transformer enclosure.
