2016
In 2016, Robert A. Aird, Inc. played a pivotal role in the $37 million transformation of the Hyatt Regency Bethesda, a prominent landmark situated at 7402 Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Bethesda, Maryland. Collaborating with Gensler and The Meridian Group, Aird was entrusted with the comprehensive stucco installation as part of the hotel's extensive exterior modernization.
Aird's scope encompassed the application of a high-performance stucco system across the hotel's façade, including the upgraded porte-cochère. This work was integral to the hotel's reimagined exterior, which featured modern architectural elements designed to reflect the natural landscape of the nearby Potomac River. The stucco installation not only enhanced the building's aesthetic appeal but also contributed to its durability and energy efficiency.
The project's complexity was heightened by the need to maintain hotel operations throughout the renovation. Aird's team coordinated closely with other contractors to ensure minimal disruption to guests and staff, demonstrating flexibility and commitment to excellence under challenging conditions.
The successful completion of the stucco installation by Robert A. Aird, Inc. significantly contributed to the revitalization of the Hyatt Regency Bethesda, aligning with the hotel's vision of blending contemporary design with timeless elegance.
