Dump Trucks Columbus OH Insight:

Construction Dive reached out to representatives of Webcor and Swinerton for comments but received no response before press time. 

When finished, Oceanwide Center will feature 265 residences, about 1 million square feet of office space, a 169-key Waldorf-Astoria hotel and a public plaza with a five-story-tall public square. The anticipated completion date before Oceanwide announced the halt in construction was 2021. 

Construction at the developer's Los Angeles project, the $1 billion Oceanwide Plaza, has been stalled since early 2019, shutting down under a cloud of late payments and approximately $100 million in mechanics liens. The columbus oh dump truck company admitted its problems with maintaining sufficient capital and said it was committed to finishing the project, but, except for some minor activity shortly after the initial shutdown, Oceanwide Plaza has not yet restarted construction. 

Long before the novel coronavirus hit the U.S., there were also indications that Oceanwide was having money problems on the San Francisco project as well. According to the Real Deal, Oceanwide sold its ownership interest in the property in January at a $276 million loss.  

Oceanwide Center is not the only project to shut down recently due to the effects of COVID-19 on the economy.

Developer AEG stopped work on its portion of the $1 billion Nashville Yards last month, delaying construction of a 4,000-person music venue, a movie theater, 90,000 square feet of office space and a 315-room hotel and conference center until after the pandemic has eased. AEG spokesman Michael Roth told Construction Dive that the columbus oh dump truck company is still "enthusiastic" about the project. 

The novel coronavirus-ravaged economy has also necessitated the postponement of two other multibillion projects — FG LA's $9.4 billion Sunshine Project petrochemical plant in Louisiana and Foxconn’s $10 billion LCD manufacturing plant in Wisconsin.
