RKA CONSTRUCTION PURCHASES BUILDING AT 81 TILLMAN

(Memphis, TN) – RKA Construction recently purchased the building at 81 Tillman to serve as its new offices. The firm is currently located in a 1,000-square-foot space at 714 S. Mendenhall. The new space is 4,000 square feet and will house the firm’s 21 team members who work in the office and in the field.

“We’ve been looking for a larger space inside the loop for a long time and, when we came across this building, we knew it was the perfect location for us – now and in the future,” says Ryan Anderson, owner of RKA Construction. “Other businesses in the area such as Walnut Grove Animal Clinic and David Lusk Gallery have invested in building renovations, and we want to continue that trend of transformation in the heart of the city.”

The new office will quadruple the amount of space available to the RKA team. “We have projects from Collierville to the river and everywhere in between, so having a centralized space is ideal for us,” says Anderson. “Our new offices will have more storage space; space for office staff; meeting space for superintendents and field staff to meet with subcontractors; and room for expansion.”

Architect Carlton Edwards designed the plans for the new space which include a sleek exterior design and a complete remodel of the interior.

“We’re builders, so buying an older building in an established Memphis neighborhood and restoring it really fits our brand,” says Anderson. “We love the idea of being a part of the continual revitalization of and reinvestment in Memphis real estate – both commercial and residential.”

Anderson plans to move his team into the new office space in April 2018.
