NAHB gives Concord the gold

By JOURNAL STAFF

Concord Condominiums
The Concord Condominiums continued its winning ways, racking up a number of awards from the National Association of Home Builders, including Best Attached Community, at the NAHB's convention last month.

The project developed by T. Jones Inc. received four gold awards recognizing its signage, floor plan and a fundraiser held by the developer which netted $250,000 for the proposed waterfront sculpture park. Silver awards were given for its Web site, logo, direct mail effort and project marketing director Dean Jones.

Last year, the Concord won a number of MAME awards for its sales efforts. All 203 units in the Concord are sold and most are occupied, except for a few penthouses which are being customized. Dean Jones said he plans to start construction in the spring on T. Jones Inc.'s next project, a 26-story residential tower just east of the convention center on Pike Street, near the company's Elektra condominiums.

The new project, designed by Driscoll Architects, will exceed the Concord in high-tech features, Jones said, but he declined to elaborate. "We're not just banging out buildings. We're a recreational developer," he said. "We build them when it feels good. We do one at a time and put in as many amenities and as much added value as possible." No contractor has been selected for the new project.
