Construction Method
The Crossing Waterfront Condominiums will be built according to the highest standards in accordance with all applicable local building codes. Each building’s first floor will be concrete blocks on a concrete slab, and the upper two floors will be wood frame construction incorporating the DEMTEC Construction System – pre-cut lumber and building components – all capped with a hurricane rated compressed fiber cement roof.
