Suwanee City Hall Clock Tower at Sunrise
September 3rd, 2008 Categories: Gwinnett County, Suwanee Fun Stuff
Again, the view over the Town Center Park continues to change daily as construction continues on the new Suwanee City Hall building. I was fortunate this morning to catch the sunrise streaming through steel frame for the top of the clock tower being assembled by welders on the ground before lifting it into its final position 115 feet above the park. The beauty of the sky and bright orange sun surrounding the early morning construction activity reflects Suwanee’s dedication to preserving its natural beauty and history amidst thirving growth and prosperity.
Enjoy the scenery and look for more in the weeks ahead as the City Hall approaches completion in mid-December.

Watching Suwanee City Hall Rise With The Sun
August 15th, 2008 Categories: Suwanee Fun Stuff, Suwanee Real Estate
As construction continues on the new Suwanee City Hall building, the view over the park changes daily. This morning the sunrise followed the rising hook of the huge crane as it lifted the last huge steel arch being placed on the front of the building.
The building was designed specifically to point back to Suwanee’s days as a railroad stop. The huge arching roof and clock tower are reminiscent of grand historic railway stations. Sunrise at these railway stations always preceded a rush of activity, and the rising arches of the new Suwanee City Hall precedes the new growth and opportunity for the future of Suwanee’s residents and businesses.

Suwanee’s New City Hall Progressing
August 6th, 2008 Categories: Suwanee Real Estate
Progress continues on the new City Hall building for the City of Suwanee. The rising steel framework overlooks the interactive fountain and Town Center Park. The most prominent recent addition to the structure is the steel skeleton of the 105-foot tall clock tower on the left side of the building. The building is scheduled for completion near the end of 2008, so at the beginning of 2009 the City of Suwanee administrative staff will happily be operating in their new home and the police department will take over the old City Hall building.
The new City Hall is another sign of Suwanee’s continuing progress and growth, which includes numerous other commercial development and construction projects in several areas throughout the city limits. The projects include the large Opus mixed-use development, Suwanee Gateway, near the I-85 and Hwy 317 intersection as well as multiple projects along Peachtree Industrial Blvd. 
Though current economic news and forecasts seem to focus on decreasing markets, there are many signs of growth and opportunity as businesses prepare to move into these new developments and as other projects are started. The residential real estate market will ultimately follow the expanding commercial opportunities and growth.
