South East Commercial Park is a new extension of Nairobi CBD and is situated within Nairobi’s Central Business District along LANDHIES Road. The South East commercial park is served by an all weather road with the site of the proposed construction being found 15 kilometers from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
South East Commercial Park is connected to the mains water supply from the Nairobi City Council and also has easily connected electricity supply.
The immediate locality consists of subdivisions each measuring an eighth an acre. Developments in this area are commercial in nature. The majority of the buildings here are well constructed and maintained.
Given the proximity of the site to Nairobi’s CBD as well as the good communication available, the site would realize good returns on a hotel development.
The site is located 15 km from an International airport and is opposite the largest bus park in East Africa.
]]>
The planned development intends to maximize this potential by creating accommodation that is spacious whilst at the same time making optimum use of the space available.
Currently, most Hotels in Nairobi CBD experience a near 100% occupancy rate on a daily basis. The planned development would thus meet an existing need.
In the locality of the planned development, there are no hotels which cater for the middle class. The closest competition perhaps comes from the low cost hotels in Gikomba area. These are however not impressive in terms of the room sizes and quality of service offered.
It is planned to start marketing the development even as the construction begins.
The room sale price for each unit has been set at KES 2,500[31.25USD]. This is the average charged by comparable hotels such as Kahama hotel in Ngara and Blue Hut hotel along Park road. The price is justified by the upgraded quality of the planned development in terms of finishes, design, and quality of service.
A4architect will in this provide the client with a full design/build service. This shall include
1. Design and specification
Architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical drawings shall be prepared and necessary approvals sought.
During the various stages of the design, the client shall be kept fully informed and client approval sought prior to proceeding to the next stage. The engineering design shall be done by registered engineers under the guidance of A4architect. Detailed specifications shall be developed with close consultation with the client.
2. Project estimates
Subsequent to completion of the design, a firm estimate shall be done for the project
3. Preparation of tender and contract documents
After final design has been done and client approval obtained, tender documents shall be drawn up for the general and specialist contractors. The specialist contract documents shall be prepared with guidance from the relevant engineers.
4. Tendering
Selected contractors shall be invited to tender for the various work packages. We shall then analyze the tenders returned and forward our recommendation to the client.
5. Contract documentation
With the contractors have been selected, we shall draw up the required contract documents and enter into contract with the contractors on the client’s behalf.
6. Project management
Subsequent to the contracts being signed and mobilization to the site, we shall provide superintendence and project management. This will entail ensuring that the project is brought in on time and under budget by constant monitoring of operations on site and remedying any issues that may prevent timely completion or cause expenditure to exceed the budget.
7. Contract administration
We shall handle all matters relating to the various contracts including but not limited to stage payments, performance bonds, extensions of time and relationships between the various traded involved in the project’s execution.
8. Sales and marketing
In conjunction with an estate agency approved by the client, we shall produce a presentation package to be used in the sales and marketing of the units.
a) Design to Tender
The design to tender process will take a total of 2 months. This will include commissioning of all engineering design, preparation of bills of quantities and obtaining of all relevant approvals for the development.
b) Construction
Construction of the entire project is estimated to take a maximum of 10 months.
Marketing of the properties is planned to start even before ground is broken for the start of the construction. This will serve the dual purpose of creating awareness of the availability of quality hotel service and to confirm the validity of the market intelligence.
A4architect will undertake marketing through the mass media and especially through the internet using a virtual presentation kit that will include a walk through movie of the development.

The main entrance to the site along Landhies road is served by a 25m wide road that connects Landhies road to Railway Lane. This road provides the necessary carriageway to serve the envisioned increase in traffic and also provide adequate off-street parking and road reserve for future expansion. Approximately 190 car parks can be accommodated along this road.
Another 25m wide road has been proposed between the main entrance road and the KPLC plot-to serve the 2nd row of developments from Landhies road.
This can accommodate approximately 320 roadside car park spaces.
A 30m wide road along railway lane is proposed within the site. This can accommodate approximately 550 cars on road-side parking.
18m wide roads can accommodate approximately 500 cars in roadside angle parking.
15m wide roads can accommodate an average of 350cars in road-side parking.
12m wide roads can accommodate 360 cars in roadside parking.
6m wide roads have been proposed to act as service lanes at the back of each plot. These can accommodate 126 cars in road-side flush parking.
All these roads will provide an estimated 2400 road-side car park spaces.
A 0.2 Ha. Plot along Railway lane near the Jogoo road roundabout has been designated for development into a parking silo.
Another 0.2 Ha. plot along Landhies road near the KPLC plot has also been ear-marked for development into a parking silo.
A combination of off-street parkings and the two parking silos will adequately cater for the increased vehicular traffic within the site.
An increase in pedestrian traffic is envisioned within the site.
The proposed roads have a width of adequate space to cater for concrete pavement pedestrian walk ways on both sides of the road.
Currently the site has only one inlet along Landhies road. 6 new access points have been proposed into the site along Landhies road.
Currently, the only access into the site along Railway lane is through Muthurwa Bus park.
8 new access openings have been proposed.
These access points will reduce any chances of traffic congestions at the entry and exit points during rush hours.
All developments will be serviced by the main road at the front and a 6m wide service lane at the rear.
All roads have been proposed to have a 6m wide minimum carriageway with asphaltic concrete surface treatment.
Street lights have been proposed to be installed along the roads.
The site has an existing water supply from the Nairobi City Council.
The proposed developments will not be adequately catered by the existing water supply network.
A new water supply network is proposed to run along the access roads and serve each plot.
The water will be supplied by Nairobi City Council.
Currently the site is connected to the Nairobi City Council sewer system.
The proposed developments will not be adequately covered by the existing sewer system.
A new sewer system is proposed to run along the road reserve to serve each plot and connect to the main Nairobi City Council sewer line.
Currently the site is connected to the Nairobi City Council storm water drainage system.
The proposed developments will require a new storm water drainage system to be installed. This will connect to the Nairobi City Council storm water drainage system.
There is already an existing Electricity supply system from KPLC.
The proposed developments will not be adequately served by the existing power supply system. A new power supply system is proposed to serve each plot.
Electricity supply is connected to the property and is adequate to meet the demand from the proposed development.
A fibre-optic underground cable supply network has been proposed to serve the site and will run along the roads on specially constructed ducts to serve each plot.
Solid waste disposal services are proposed to be provided by the Nairobi City Council and private solid waste disposal companies.

PHASED CONSTRUCTION
In order to ease the impact of the overall cost of the development it is proposed to carry out the construction in phases to be jointly agreed on with the client. The project can be phased in terms of vertical floor levels per floor as agreed with the client.
In order to enable planning of major infrastructural requirements such as water storage and soil water disposal right from the outset, a master plan of the entire development shall be evolved. Thus the capacity of some of the facilities may initially exceed the needs of the accommodation provided, but this would be done with the full knowledge that the development will grow to fully utilize the facilities provided.
Auxiliary features would include paved driveways and parking, extra water storage and planted landscaped gardens. The country ambience would further be enhanced by having strategically planted trees which would serve the added role of acting as wind breaks.
The development budget is as follows:
80 No. self-contained accommodation rooms per floor for 5 No. Floors=400 No. Accommodation rooms.
Cost of construction per room fully furnished=KES 40,000 per square meter.
Area for each unit =16m2.

South East Commercial Park is a new extension of Nairobi CBD and is situated within Nairobi’s Central Business District along LANDHIES Road. The South East commercial park is served by an all weather road with the site of the proposed construction being found 15 kilometers from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
South East Commercial Park is connected to the mains water supply from the Nairobi City Council and also has easily connected electricity supply.
The immediate locality consists of subdivisions each measuring an eighth an acre. Developments in this area are commercial in nature. The majority of the buildings here are well constructed and maintained.
Given the proximity of the site to Nairobi’s CBD as well as the good communication available, the site would realize good returns on a hotel development.
The site is located 15 km from an International airport and is opposite the largest bus park in East Africa.
]]>
The planned development intends to maximize this potential by creating accommodation that is spacious whilst at the same time making optimum use of the space available.
Currently, most Hotels in Nairobi CBD experience a near 100% occupancy rate on a daily basis. The planned development would thus meet an existing need.
In the locality of the planned development, there are no hotels which cater for the middle class. The closest competition perhaps comes from the low cost hotels in Gikomba area. These are however not impressive in terms of the room sizes and quality of service offered.
It is planned to start marketing the development even as the construction begins.
The room sale price for each unit has been set at KES 2,500[31.25USD]. This is the average charged by comparable hotels such as Kahama hotel in Ngara and Blue Hut hotel along Park road. The price is justified by the upgraded quality of the planned development in terms of finishes, design, and quality of service.
A4architect will in this provide the client with a full design/build service. This shall include
1. Design and specification
Architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical drawings shall be prepared and necessary approvals sought.
During the various stages of the design, the client shall be kept fully informed and client approval sought prior to proceeding to the next stage. The engineering design shall be done by registered engineers under the guidance of A4architect. Detailed specifications shall be developed with close consultation with the client.
2. Project estimates
Subsequent to completion of the design, a firm estimate shall be done for the project
3. Preparation of tender and contract documents
After final design has been done and client approval obtained, tender documents shall be drawn up for the general and specialist contractors. The specialist contract documents shall be prepared with guidance from the relevant engineers.
4. Tendering
Selected contractors shall be invited to tender for the various work packages. We shall then analyze the tenders returned and forward our recommendation to the client.
5. Contract documentation
With the contractors have been selected, we shall draw up the required contract documents and enter into contract with the contractors on the client’s behalf.
6. Project management
Subsequent to the contracts being signed and mobilization to the site, we shall provide superintendence and project management. This will entail ensuring that the project is brought in on time and under budget by constant monitoring of operations on site and remedying any issues that may prevent timely completion or cause expenditure to exceed the budget.
7. Contract administration
We shall handle all matters relating to the various contracts including but not limited to stage payments, performance bonds, extensions of time and relationships between the various traded involved in the project’s execution.
8. Sales and marketing
In conjunction with an estate agency approved by the client, we shall produce a presentation package to be used in the sales and marketing of the units.
a) Design to Tender
The design to tender process will take a total of 2 months. This will include commissioning of all engineering design, preparation of bills of quantities and obtaining of all relevant approvals for the development.
b) Construction
Construction of the entire project is estimated to take a maximum of 10 months.
Marketing of the properties is planned to start even before ground is broken for the start of the construction. This will serve the dual purpose of creating awareness of the availability of quality hotel service and to confirm the validity of the market intelligence.
A4architect will undertake marketing through the mass media and especially through the internet using a virtual presentation kit that will include a walk through movie of the development.
Overall fees charged shall be 10% of the final contract sum. The fees shall be spread over the various stages as follows:

Top 3 Beaufort, SC Real Estate Investment Areas
Posted: May 22, 2009 |Comments: 0

]]>
In the town of Beaufort South Carolina, three areas immediately come to mind as the areas best investment opportunities. Because Beaufort is perhaps the last remaining South Carolina coastal town in which development has not completely taken hold. If history is a window to the future, the unprecedented development of Myrtle Beach, Mt. Pleasant, Charleston, Bluffton, and Hilton Head hints that it is only a matter of time until an influx of people, businesses, and homes hits this sleepy town.
It’s believed that the start of prosperity had already begun until the country’s economic slowdown. While at a snails pace now, the economy will rebound as it always has before. With the future of large scale growth very probable, investors will start to narrow down area with the greatest potential for profit. As individuals and companies alike focus in on Beaufort SC, they will likely become trained on three areas: the downtown Beaufort Historic District, commercial property on the Robert Smalls Parkway corridor, and acreage/waterfront property on St. Helena Island top the list of best investment real estate in the Beaufort South Carolina area.
Historic Downtown Beaufort SC is home to a unique area which lends itself to be a top investment area in the near future. The preservation of so many historic dwellings in downtown Beaufort makes the housing market extremely diverse to the buyer. Homes include large stately homes from the 1800′s, carriage houses turned into single family residences, townhomes from the 1700′s and homes built in the early 1900′s. Homes and neighborhoods are charming, with wrought iron gates, courtyard gardens and live-oak lined streets. Culture which includes horse drawn carriages that clippity-clop past grand homes, offices, shops, and upscale restaurants makes this market very desirable.
What makes the future investment in downtown so great are so great are the underway improvements to an area with so many already in-place advantages. Current project underway include the Bladen St. revitalization project and the Boundary St. Municipal project. Bladen St. has now been upgrades with new street lamps, freshly paved asphalt, and beautiful new sidewalks. The new Municipal buildings on Boundary Street are in the various construction phases to be completed by the end of 2009. The ascetic improvements are already evident. These improvements will propel home renovations, nicer homes to be built, and an overall rise in property value. Improvements like the one on Bladen Street are planned for the remainder of downtown, which will greatly improve the already desirable area. Since similar improvements in Charleston SC were completed in the 1990s, home vales have more than doubled. Expectation for downtown Beaufort SC are high, and rightfully so.
The next Beaufort SC real estate area which could see large property value increases in coming years is the commercial corridor of Robert Smalls Parkway. Anchored by the Cross Creek Shopping Center featuring a Super Center Wal-Mart, this commercial district is on the verge of exploding. In just the past 12 months Bojangles, Arby’s, Sake House, International House of Pancakes, Jersey Mikes, and other national retailers have opened their doors. Citing the Beaufort County Association of Realtors Multiple Listing Service, several hundred undeveloped acres are currently for sale along the parkway. While no area is a sure thing, commercial real estate in this area is one of Beaufort’s best investment areas.
The final area for great investment potential in Beaufort is waterfront property on St. Helena Island. Rural and for the most part undeveloped, St. Helena Island has oceanfront, riverfront, and tidal creek lots. With a buyer able to purchase an acre on deep water in the 0,000 range, property here is a great deal. Waterfront lots on St. Helena are often less than half the price as comparable lots in Charleston, Hilton Head, Bluffton or Mt. Pleasant. Is development coming to the St. Helena Island? You bet. Located directly between the oceanfront resorts of Fripp and Harbor Islands and Lady’s Island, the centralized location leaves no doubt. The biggest question is how long an investor will have to wait to turn a profit here. The answer depends on your age. An educated estimate would say five years. For investors who are at or nearing retirement age, this might not be your cup of tea. For everyone else, St. Helena waterfront lots are a sure bet for substantial growth in value.
Regardless if Downtown Beaufort, the Robert Smalls commercial corridor, or waterfront land on St. Helena Island, these investment areas are an investors best bet when it comes to investing in the Beaufort SC area.

Unsold homes in today’s market are often attributed to the lack of financing available to potential buyers. A restructuring of the loan system would not only be beneficial to buyers and sellers, but to the economy as a whole. If the government can bail out those who were default on their debt, shouldn’t the government go to bat for those of us who have always been responsible with their bank books.

Recycle waste concrete crusher/ building rubble on-site into reusable material to save time, money & manpower!
Komplet recycling products will crush glass, porcelain, marble, granite, bricks, blocks, asphalt and reinforced concrete Transported on a standard 5ton equipment trailer these crushers can be fed by a mini excavator or skid steer. Processing between 45-110 tons a day, the size of the product can be varied depending upon requirements, from 0″ – 3″.
Being small these units can operate in most locations with minimal effort and with pricing at a very competitive level, we can offer a prompt and friendly service. Our company would be happy to discuss any requirements, large or small—there are solutions to them all.
If U.S. demand increases in the next few years by an expected 1% per annum, 20 million tons of extra aggregates will be needed each year. Land fill charges will rise exponentially and total costs will increase dramatically. Why incur charges to send valuable rubble to landfill? Why not profit by crushing it into re-saleable recycled, secondary aggregates. Apart from the vast monetary advantage, the crusher is environmentally friendly as adopting this process reduces raw aggregates being taken from the ground and saves much space in landfill.
Don’t pay for new aggregates
Save on haulage
Save on space and time
Save on landfill charges
Save on manpower
We can contribute to the profitability of concrete crusher hundreds of companies and individuals in many diverse markets.

Motorcycle Touring: Mountains, Motorcycles and Motohicans
Posted: Sep 26, 2010 |
]]>
As some of the Last of the Motohicans, every year we try to plot a different course for our annual two-wheeled pilgrimage to “Sturgis”. Our motorcycle touring itinerary for 2010 was to cover a distance of 3,055 miles over 7 days. We covered the first 1,515 miles–from Miami Beach Florida to Wichita Falls Texas–in under 36 hours. That should earn me my 51st Iron Butt cert, and bought us the time we needed to relax the pace and take in the scenery over the remaining 5 days. Those last 1,540 miles took us west across stretches of old Route 66 in Texas and New Mexico, then north through the high peaks and narrow valleys of the southwestern Colorado Rockies, and finally northeast across Wyoming to Sundance, our base for this year’s “Black Hills Trailer Classic”:
http://tinyurl.com/wichitafalls2sundance
After a sunny Monday morning’s coffee and cold egg breakfast at the Wichita Falls La Quinta, we headed northwest through the Red River Valley on US 287 where it parallels the famous river’s course and Texas-Oklahoma border. We made our first stop just shy of the Panhandle at a crossroads named for Quanah Parker, the “half-breed” Indian and last Comanche chief who–given he sired 25 children with his 5 wives–might very well have been its founding father. We then followed 287 on across the High Plains of the Panhandle through small towns lost in time that reminded me of “The Last Picture Show” until we reached Amarillo. From there we headed west past the Big Texan Steakhouse on I-40 and old Route 66, stopping for lunch and lots of iced tea at the Route 66 Midpoint Cafe in Adrian, where the food is just as good and the people are just as friendly as their website suggests:
http://www.midpointroute66cafe.com
A short ride west from Adrian took us across the state line into the Mountain Time Zone and the Mesalands of New Mexico. The landscape transition there from the endless flat grasslands of the High Plains to the flat-topped buttes and mesas of the High Desert is sudden, dramatic, and another one of those experiences I don’t have words to adequately describe. Let’s just call it a “must see”, as is Tucumcari, the slowly fading old Route 66 motoring mecca where we stopped to spend the night with Gail at her back-to-the-fifties Motel Safari:
http://smalltown-america.com
Waking on Eastern time, we were up and rolling west on I-40 by 5:00am the next morning. The desert was vast and the highway was straight, so twisting the throttle got us to Albuquerque just in time to enjoy their Tuesday morning rush hour. Despite that, it was a short hop up I-25 to Bernalillo, where we gassed up to ride northwest on US 550 through the San Juan Basin Badlands “reserved” for the Zia and Jicarilla Apache Indians. There, around mid-morning, we crossed the Continental Divide for what would be the first of several times:
http://ldrlongdistancerider.com/motorcycle_photos_color/1667.jpg
By noon, we had crossed the border into Colorado and ridden through the southernmost portion of the postcard-picturesque San Juan Mountains to our destination of Durango. Durango is a High Country haven of 16,000 comfortable with adjectives like eclectic and eccentric, and one end of the 45.4 mile D&SNGRR (Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad). It is well worth the ride to see, but expect to pay for the privilege. We stayed at the Best Western Durango Inn … and truly enjoyed our liquid lunch with some “loaded” riders there at Christina’s Grill & Bar:
http://www.christinasgrill.com
Wednesday morning we were again packed and rolling early, excited to be on our way to what was supposed to be the high point (double meaning) of our trip, i.e. a night’s stay at the New Sheridan Hotel in Telluride. The distance we had to cover from Durango west on US 160 to Cortez then north on CO 145 to Telluride was less than 120 miles. But with all the stops for Kodak moments along the way, it took us half the day to get there. And I’m embarrassed to report that after one of those stops, we were lucky to get there at all:
For most of the way, two-lane CO 145 runs alongside the rushing waters of the Dolores River (imagine the old “Taste the High Country” Coors commercials, but set in the green of summer). And for most of the way, the shoulder is narrow and the drop-off is steep. At one particularly panoramic point, however, I was persuaded to pull over where it looked like the shoulder was both wider and paved. Wider it was … but paved it was not. What I had coasted onto was some moist gray clay. And when I put my right boot down, it just kept right on going. Fully loaded, Hidalgo started listing to the right. I was startled for a moment, but then somehow managed to jerk left and get the bike back upright before it reached that dreaded point of no return. And after giving thanks to Divine Providence, we were soon easing back onto asphalt instead of sliding thirty feet down a steep slope into icy rapids.
An hour or so later, after stopping for gas at Mountain Top Fuel in Rico and crossing over Lizard Head Pass, we rode by the entrance to uber-exclusive Mountain Village (elevation 9,545 ft) then on down and right on the only road leading in or out of the fabled snow-skiing resort town of Telluride (base 8,750 ft, slope 12,570 ft, peak 13,150 ft). A few minutes more and we were parked on Colorado Avenue and checking into the New Sheridan Hotel, where a biker-friendly concierge named Elaine welcomed us like we were old friends.
This was not my first visit to Telluride or the New Sheridan … but it was my first visit since 1984. Back in the day, Telluride was renowned for more than one kind of snow, and it would not be surprising to walk into the historic New Sheridan Bar and see bowls of peyote passed around as party favors. But like I say, that was back in the day… Much tamer now, Telluride remains a storybook town as rich in modern culture and “Old West” history as most of its trust-fund residents are in net worth. It is in many ways more enchanting and exclusive than Durango. So like the elevation, the prices in Telluride are even higher. Nevertheless, washing down a Chop House steak with a cold beer at the New Sheridan Bar should be on every biker’s bucket list:
http://www.newsheridan.com
One night in Telluride was all our budget would allow, so Thursday morning we were packed to leave long before the sun crested any of the towering peaks surrounding us. And at daybreak, we resumed our trek north along the narrow, winding San Juan Skyway. Contending with a combination of early morning fog and icy drizzle, it took us the better part of an hour to ride the 16 twisting miles to Placerville and turn west on CO 62. We soon rode out of the rain after that, though, and the skies cleared enough for us to see that impossible-to-photograph horizon-spanning series of sky touching peaks–anchored by Mount Sneffels (14,150 ft) and popularly called the “Sneffels Range”–that I long and wrongly thought gave Ridgway (correct spelling) its name. There we turned left at the only stoplight in Ouray County, and headed on up US 550.
We were north of the imposing San Juan peaks now, and the landscape opened up more and more as we got closer to Montrose. Being a bit claustrophobic, DP and I felt relieved to have all those narrow valleys and confining slopes behind us. And the distant rounded buttes, vast open valleys and arid terrain from Delta to Grand Junction looked so much like the Davis Mountains and Big Bend that I felt right at home. From there we turned east on I-70 to Rifle, then followed CO 13 to the Wyoming border. CO 13 is not designated as scenic on the HOG manual maps, but it certainly should be: Rugged hills … unusual rock formations … rustic relics … unmarred natural beauty … CO 13 has it all.
At the Wyoming border CO 13 becomes WY 789, and just north of there we stopped for gas in Baggs (as should anyone riding through). At an elevation of 6,245 feet, we were still “riding high” by Florida standards, but the terrain was now far from mountainous. We were approaching the crest of the Wyoming High Plains and would roll over the Continental Divide two more times as we made our turns east on I-80 and into Rawlins. There we checked into the clean and extremely affordable La Belle Motel. And as the sun was sinking in the west, a storm was rising to our east, producing a light show in the sky this photo could not capture:
http://www.ldrlongdistancerider.com/motorcycle_photos_color/1704.jpg
Our internal clocks still running two hours ahead, on Friday morning we were once again up long before the sun. Not wanting to miss any vistas, though, we waited ’til daylight before heading north on US 287 then east on WY 220 to the heart of Cowboy Country and Casper. It was then a short ride up I-25 to the Edgerton exit, a turn east on WY 387 to Wright, a quick jut south on WY 59 to WY 450, then east again to Newcastle along a stretch the HOG manual map says is scenic but isn’t. From there on up US 85 to WY 585 and into Sundance, however, we were in the Black Hills … and it doesn’t get much more scenic than that.
