Hamptons Bay, NY Racanelli Construction Co., Inc., a leading construction management, general contractor and design/build resource for commercial, industrial, retail, medical, pre-engineered and multi-unit residential projects, is continuing its role as the general contractor on another Rechler Equity Partners’ project—the restoration of the historic four-story Canoe Place Inn. The project, which began in the fall of 2019, is expected to be completed in the summer of 2021. It consists of a catering space for special events accommodating up to 350 indoor seated guests, and an adjacent outdoor space for 120 guests. Additionally, the Canoe Place Inn will provide 20 guest rooms and five on-site cottages.
In providing its construction services for the Canoe Place Inn, Racanelli Construction was intent on maintaining the architectural integrity of the property originally built in the early 1700s and redesigned in 1921 by renowned architect William Lawrence Bottomley after it was destroyed in a fire. Also important in the restoration project was to incorporate today’s modern materials and features expected in distinctive venues sought out for weddings, conferences, galas and other special events. Once completed, the Canoe Place Inn will be the largest event hall on Long Island’s East End South Fork with its day-to-day operations being managed by the Backal Hospitality Group.
Senior project manager Mike Marshall noted that among the modern systems incorporated into the Canoe Place Inn is a new Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB) Septic System, which provides for the passive treatment of nitrogen and other groundwater contaminants, and therefore supports environmental protection goals.
In addition to Marshall, other members of the Racanelli organization serving on the Canoe Place Inn project include: Project executive Martin Racanelli, Jr., superintendent Sal DiCristo and assistant project manager Luis Rivera.
