Groundbreaking is set for Tuesday, December 6th at 10:00 AM at the Gilchrist Road location. Expected completion is May, 2017.

The extensive transformation of the current building will feature a timeless facade, featuring glass and stone elements to enhance the environment from both Gilchrist Road and the view from Interstate 76, just south of the Gilchrist exit.

The Moran family purchased the business and building from the previous owner in December, 2015. A substantial increase in business in the Akron / Canton areas and future growth expectations led to the renovation of the building, which will include a 3000-square foot showroom with the same size warehouse and loading dock on the lower level.

“We are excited about our continued growth in Northeastern Ohio, and this major investment in Akron will serve to accommodate our progress while expanding our presence even further”, comments Fred Moran, Pat’s father and Patrick’s grandfather.

Lead designer of the project is Robert Mastriana, partner and architect with The 4M Company, Youngstown, Ohio. “This will be a unique transformation, mixing residential styling with the contemporary flair of today’s architectural retail trend,” notes Mastriana. “The transparent design and exterior lighting will allow people to view the interior elements of the showroom from both inside and outside, and at all times of day.”
