UnCommons and Burke Construction Group Deliver Nearly 4,000 Free Meals to Local Hospitals for UnCommon Heroes Project

LAS VEGAS – May 4, 2020 – In support of the community during the coronavirus pandemic, UnCommons, a first-of-its-kind community coming to southwest Las Vegas being developed by Matter Real Estate Group, and Las Vegas-based Burke Construction Group have delivered nearly 4,000 free upscale dinners to local night shift healthcare workers. Deliveries were sent to every night shift employee at all 14 hospitals in the Las Vegas Valley over 12 days to show their appreciation for the community’s first responders, as well as to support local restaurants.

From Tuesday, April 14 through Saturday, April 25, 3,742 meals were delivered to local hospitals including Sunrise Hospital, Desert Springs Hospital, St. Rose Dominican Hospital’s San Martin and Siena Campuses, Southern Hills Hospital, Henderson Hospital, Summerlin Hospital, Mountain View Hospital, Centennial Hills Hospital Medical Center, North Vista Hospital, Spring Valley Hospital, Valley Hospital Medical Center and University Medical Center of Southern Nevada. The meals were prepared by some of Las Vegas’ favorite restaurants including Piero’s Italian Cuisine, Lotus of Siam, Sushi Kame and dessert from Urth Caffé. Representatives were onsite during the deliveries to show their appreciation.

“This project truly integrated the alignment of an ‘uncommon hero’ and the ethos of the UnCommons community, which is designed to bring people together,” said Matter Real Estate Group Partner Jim Stuart. “When we reached out to local hospital administrators, we discovered that the night shift workers hadn’t received as much attention, so we wanted to make sure that their courageous work was not going unnoticed. It’s been an incredibly inspiring experience to watch everyday citizens suit up and go into harm’s way for the care of others, and it has forever changed our perspective on these healthcare professionals who are on the front line every day.”

“There have been so many people in this community who continue to step up and help, and for an organization like UnCommons, that focuses on the importance of community, we felt that it was only right to give back,” said Kevin Burke, president and CEO of Burke Construction Group and partner of Matter Real Estate Group. “This is not a sprint, this is an endurance race, and each and every day we have to reach out and help those who need it the most during this time.”

“We were so honored to be one of the restaurants chosen to be a part of these donations,” said Evan Glusman of Piero’s Italian Cuisine, an iconic Las Vegas restaurant. “Once we got in the kitchen again, we wanted to work as hard as our Las Vegas healthcare professionals are working in order to give them a great meal.” Piero’s Italian Cuisine, which is closed during the shutdown, reopened its kitchen to prepare meals for healthcare professionals. Piero’s, which opened in 1982 at 355 Convention Center Dr., is a revered Las Vegas institution, known for its authentic Italian cuisine and old school Las Vegas environment.

“Putting smiles on the faces of these brave healthcare professionals was such an amazing feeling and we are so happy that we could show our love and appreciation for them through our food,” said Chef Eric Kim from Sushi Kame, a top Japanese restaurant in Las Vegas. The restaurant, which remains open for takeout, took the time to allocate resources to help feed healthcare professionals during this time. Sushi Kame’s celebrated cuisine highlights a diversity of ingredients, preparations, and a range of textures. Located at 3616 West Spring Mountain Rd., orders are available by calling (702) 665-5731.

“We have so much appreciation for our healthcare community. The sacrifices they are making to be able to keep Las Vegas safe is incredible, and we just wanted to be able to thank them for all they do,” said Kenny Okada of Lotus of Siam, a James Beard award-winning restaurant.” Lotus of Siam, also closed during the shutdown, reopened its kitchen to prepare meals for healthcare workers. Serving the award-winning Northern Thai cuisine of Chef Saipin Chutima, Lotus of Siam has two locations: the original at 953 E. Sahara Ave. and 620 E. Flamingo Rd.

Each meal was accompanied by a piece of Urth Caffé’s signature marbled coffee cake. “We couldn’t be more thankful of every healthcare professional during this time and we hope that our donations made their long day just a little sweeter,” said Shallom Berkman, co-founder of Urth Caffé, a pioneer of exclusively heirloom, organic coffees, fine teas and health conscious cuisine.

The meal donations follow UnCommons’ recent $25,000 donation to the Culinary Workers Union Local 226’s Helping Hand program, which is helping provide food assistance to those in need in Las Vegas, through efforts led by Clark County Commissioner Michael Naft. The $25,000 donation is part of a $100,000 commitment that Matter has made toward local efforts in the fight against coronavirus. Of that donation, $25,000 went toward the purchase of much needed N95 face masks for healthcare professionals in support of efforts by Governor Steve Sisolak and $25,000 was donated to the Jewish Family Services Agency to provide meals for senior citizens in support of efforts by Naft. The remaining $25,000 donation is earmarked to support additional needs as identified by Sisolak.

UnCommons, a fully financed, first-of-its kind mixed-use development in southwest Las Vegas, will break ground this spring. The $400-million project is designed for the modern workforce’s desire for a workplace that enhances their lives through rich amenities, open space and connectivity. The curated office, retail, restaurant, lifestyle and residential offerings will be complemented by a pedestrian trail and public art, situated on a walkable 40-acre site. The development will include outdoor common spaces, a venue that blends music and movies, a beer garden, a food hall showcasing the best of the local food scene, additional food and beverage spaces, health and fitness studios, a multi-purpose conference center, 500,000+ square feet of modern office space, 830+ urban stylized apartment units and more.

Five Ways You Can Prepare Now to Reopen Your Office

 

As I sit in my backyard working on my laptop, I have been reflecting on the future of the office. For so many of us, the office has been our primary workplace since college. I think of it now as the place where we huddled to share ideas, high-fived successes and came together for team celebrations. Now, in the wake of the coronavirus, will it ever be the same?

I must admit, I was initially surprised by how productive I have been at my “Work From Home” (WFH) office, where I have the fortunate timing of a recent remodel. My home office is separate from the house and out of earshot of the kid’s video game chatter, plus I’m wondering how I ever lived without my new sit-stand desk. Still, I yearn for getting back to the office. Not only for the simple pleasure of interpersonal contact with my coworkers, but for the energy and efficiency created by person-to-person communication.

Before we know it, the time will come for us start working in our own offices again. Here are five things you can do now to prepare:

  1. Establish a “Mobility Program”: Something we are all focused on of as of late is business continuity planning. Shutting your workforce down has not been an option, so we have all been challenged to find solutions to work productively in the absence of being able to go to the office. We can learn from that now as we prepare return to our offices by creating infrastructure that allows for more people to work from home. Not just to provide social distancing, but to keep the workplace healthy by making it possible for employees who may not be feeling well to work from home.
    • Let’s start with technology. Many companies, mine included, are implementing new communication applications and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) on the cloud for easier file sharing.
    • Next up are guidelines. It is important for employers to establish clear guidelines to help employees understand any new WFH policies. What can they expense for their new home office? What are the new “office hours” for response times? Employees will also appreciate being a part of this process. Perhaps start with a survey of what they liked and did not like from their WFH experience. And most importantly, leaders need to live by and demonstrate these new behaviors. It is not enough to write about it; your employees will be keenly aware of how seriously leadership adapts.
  2. Get to know your “FF&E”: You may know this term meaning “furniture, fixtures and equipment,” or the basic elements of outfitting an office space. One trend will be to continuing physical distancing, distancing seats and workstations to be further apart. At least for the time being, the densification of office floor plans is no longer acceptable. You may be lucky to already have reconfigurable workstations, as spaces offering more private areas stand to become more popular. Now is the time to reintroduce yourself to your furniture vendor and have them provide you with new ideas. Typically, the larger manufacturers are way ahead of these trends and prove to be an invaluable resource. Suggestions will likely include more distance between desks; having employees sit back-to-back, rather than facing each other or side-by-side; and wider hallways. An easy and immediate solution is to remove half of the chairs from the conference tables.
  3. Sanitation: Maybe less visible to employees, but just as important, will be new cleaning regimens that will be viewed as “best practices” for leading companies. Sure, I would expect a “welcome back” hand sanitizer on my desk, but it will be much more than that. It may be worth having a discussion with your landlord or property manager to see what protocols have changed to ensure cleanliness in the public areas like the lobby and restrooms. How often is your space cleaned by the janitorial service? What is in their scope? What types of products are they using? What are the new hygiene guidelines for your office and employees? Is there a written plan or guidelines your landlord can share to ascertain if they are taking your employees health and safety seriously? Talk is not enough. Moving forward, employers will have a responsibility to keep their team safe.
  4. Air/Sunlight: Perhaps now is the time to understand the air filtration system that you work within. Viruses can live in the air, plus most offices could use better ventilation. The more air changes the better, as there is no substitute for fresh air. Natural light has always been preferred to dark or fluorescent lights, but it is now proven to offer a health benefit. Start by opening the blinds, asking management to change the filters and ensure the service and maintenance of the HVAC. Most tenants are unaware that the air you are breathing has been recirculated throughout the building. The risk here is that while you may be doing everything right to control a viral outbreak, if the other tenants in your building are not, then your people may be at risk. The most advanced systems will recirculate the air in your space only.
  5. Leadership: Now may be the opportunity to refresh your company culture by connecting with your co-workers at a higher level. Staying safe post COVID-19 will be a team effort. Listen to your employees’ concerns and be open to arranging a more flexible work environment and schedule. Communication will be key to monitoring mental health and happiness as we all get back to the new normal. More than anything else, empathy and compassion are required. People will return to work scared, and regaining confidence after the trauma of COVID-19 will take time. Be patient.

Open Plan Office Space

Before the pandemic, we were seeing companies shift the way they worked towards providing more freedom, but now freedom has become commonplace. What will motivate employees and increase moral besides the typical amenities? Start by letting them know their safety and wellness is now at the top of the list.

UnCommons and Matter Real Estate Group Partner with Burke Construction Group and Local Restaurants to Provide Nearly 4,000 Free Meals to all 14 Hospitals in Clark County

LAS VEGAS – April 10, 2020 – Matter Real Estate Group (Matter), the community-minded development firm behind UnCommons, a first-of-its-kind development coming to Durango Drive and the 215 Beltway in southwest Las Vegas, will provide nearly 4,000 free meals to each of the 14 hospitals in the Las Vegas Valley. Together with Burke Construction Group (Burke), Matter will be supporting some of Las Vegas’ top restaurants, including Piero’s Italian Cuisine, Lotus of Siam, Sushi Kame and Urth Caffé, to provide healthcare professionals with upscale dinners from Tuesday, April 14 through Saturday, April 25.

“While this ‘shut down’ to keep our community safe has led to so much isolation, this is our way to help bring the community together to thank these uncommon heroes, our local healthcare professionals. We have reached out to the chefs and owners of restaurants that are local favorites to support this effort, including a few that will become a vital part of UnCommons,” said Matter Real Estate Group Partner Jim Stuart. “At the same time, we are demonstrating our support for the Las Vegas restaurant industry — a tight-knit community that has come together in their own hard times to support those on the front lines of this pandemic.”

Matter and Burke have scheduled these deliveries with officials at every Clark County hospital as part of a coordinated effort. Based on the needs outlined by each hospital, these deliveries will be made during the night shift to provide dinners for every employee working at that time. In addition to financial support, Burke will be delivering the meals to the local hospitals, starting with 300 Italian dinners from Piero’s Italian Cuisine to Sunrise Hospital on Tuesday, April 14. Dinner will also be delivered to every nightshift employee on duty at University Medical Center of Southern Nevada, Southern Hills Hospital & Medical Center; North Vista Hospital; Spring Valley Hospital; Desert Springs Hospital; St. Rose Dominican Hospital, San Martin Campus; St. Rose Dominican Hospital, Siena Campus; Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center;  Henderson Hospital; Summerlin Hospital Medical Center; MountainView Hospital – ER at Aliante; Centennial Hills Hospital Medical Center; and Valley Hospital Medical Center.

“In these unprecedented times, it is imperative that we, as local companies, come together to graciously thank those on the front line, while also helping our neighborhood businesses. We are proud to be a part of this great city that we have called home for over 35 years, and we felt it was our responsibility to give back to a community that has done so much for us,” said Kevin Burke, president and CEO of Burke Construction Group and partner of Matter Real Estate Group. “Together we will get through this because we are Vegas Strong!”

“We are immensely grateful to our local healthcare professionals, who selflessly put the care of others before themselves,” said Evan Glusman of Piero’s Italian Cuisine, an iconic Las Vegas restaurant. “We want to do whatever we can to be there for them, too.” Piero’s Italian Cuisine, which is closed during the shutdown, will be reopening its kitchen to prepare meals for healthcare professionals. Piero’s, which opened in 1982 at 355 Convention Center Dr., is a revered Las Vegas institution, known for its authentic Italian cuisine and old school Las Vegas environment.

“We know how hard it must be for healthcare workers to find time to eat during their shifts,” said Chef Eric Kim from Sushi Kame, a top Japanese restaurant in Las Vegas. “They take care of us, and we want to take care of them.” Sushi Kame, which remains open for takeout, will be allocating resources to help feed healthcare professionals during this time. Sushi Kame’s celebrated cuisine highlights a diversity of ingredients, preparations, and a range of textures. Located at 3616 West Spring Mountain Rd., orders are available by calling (702) 665-5731.

“Our healthcare community is at the heart of Las Vegas during this time,” said Kenny Okada of Lotus of Siam, a James Beard award-winning restaurant. “We want to do whatever we can to support them.” Lotus of Siam, also closed during the shutdown, will reopen its kitchen to prepare meals for healthcare workers. Serving the award-winning Northern Thai cuisine of Chef Saipin Chutima, Lotus of Siam has two locations: the original at 953 E. Sahara Ave. and 620 E. Flamingo Rd.

Each of the meals will be accompanied by a piece of Urth Caffé’s signature marbled coffee cake. “We are delighted to come together with UnCommons and the local restaurant community to feed many of the Las Vegas healthcare professionals who are working tirelessly in this time,” said Shallom Berkman, co-founder of Urth Caffé, a pioneer of exclusively heirloom, organic coffees, fine teas and health conscious cuisine.

The meal donations follow Matter and UnCommons recent $100,000 donation toward local efforts in the fight against coronavirus, of which $25,000 went toward the purchase of much needed N95 face masks for healthcare professionals in support of efforts by Governor Steve Sisolak and $25,000 was donated to the Jewish Family Services Agency to provide meals for senior citizens in support of efforts by Commissioner Michael Naft.

UnCommons Donates $100,000 to Support Fight Against the Spread of Coronavirus in Nevada

LAS VEGAS – April 9, 2020 – Matter Real Estate Group, the community-minded development firm behind UnCommons, has donated $100,000 to support efforts led by Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak and Clark County Commissioner Michael Naft in the fight against the spread of COVID-19.

“Based on guidance by Governor Sisolak and Commissioner Naft, we are making donations that will provide immediate support for our community,” said Matter partner, Jim Stuart. “The people of Las Vegas have been greatly affected by the coronavirus and we feel compelled to take action in this time of great need.”

The funds will be divided evenly between recommendations made by the state and county. Matter has already donated $25,000 toward the purchase of much needed N95 face masks for healthcare professionals in partnership with Sisolak and $25,000 toward providing meal deliveries for senior citizens in partnership with Naft. The remaining $50,000 will be allocated as determined by both elected officials.

“This initial donation by Matter will help care for our most vulnerable population during this time – senior citizens who risk their health by leaving home for food and other basic needs,” said Commissioner Naft. “The unwavering commitment to Las Vegas by community leaders like Matter demonstrates that we truly are in this together.”

“We conceived UnCommons as the new centerpiece of our community as a place, ironically, that connects people,” said Stuart. “It’s in that spirit that we feel compelled to take action now, particularly when this virus has left us all so isolated.” Matter had earlier announced plans for a groundbreaking party for UnCommons where both Governor Sisolak and Commissioner Naft were scheduled to speak. The company later canceled the event as the impending spread of the coronavirus and its impact have become clear. The company is now recognizing the milestone through community support.

UnCommons, a fully financed, first-of-its kind mixed-use development in southwest Las Vegas, will break ground this spring. The $400-million project is designed for the modern workforce’s desire for a workplace that enhances their lives through rich amenities, open space and connectivity.

Burke Construction Group Named General Contractor of Matter Real Estate Group’s UnCommons Project

LAS VEGAS (Oct. 22, 2019)Matter Real Estate Group has named Burke Construction Group Inc. as general contractor of the firm’s $400-million UnCommons project. The first-of-its kind mixed-use development in southwest Las Vegas will break ground this spring and be completed in fall 2021.

The curated office, restaurant, food hall, lifestyle and residential offerings, designed by the globally renowned architecture firm Gensler, will be complemented by a pedestrian trail, multi-purpose conference center and inspirational art, all situated on an easily walkable 40-acre site.

The San Diego-based developer, Matter Real Estate, believes it is taking on a true partnership through this announcement. “The value that Burke Construction Group places on sustainable strategies, relationship building, value adding and really working as a trusted partner is what sets them apart from the competition,” said Matter Real Estate Partner Jim Stuart.

Phase I of UnCommons includes nearly 200,000 square feet of office space, a variety of popular new eateries and a food hall featuring carefully edited versions of the best of the local food scene. Lifestyle and entertainment uses include a variety of fitness studios and a luxury movie theater, plus an additional 382 urban style apartment units with the convenience of approximately 1,200 parking stalls located in two modern onsite parking structures. Phase I represents $250 million of new commercial and residential construction and upon completion, UnCommons will house 3,000 employees and more than 2,000 residents. The project will deliver a new supply of office space each year to meet the anticipated ongoing market demand.

“Collaboration, communication and accountability will be the driving forces in the partnering approach taken on this project,” explained Kevin Burke, President and CEO of Burke Construction Group and also a partner of Matter Real Estate. “We look forward to embarking on a collaborative partnership by producing a project in an environment that embodies our core values of quality results, professionalism and integrity. We are excited to be a part of an incredibly talented project team.”

The Burke Construction Group team will utilize a four-story hybrid structure made of concrete and steel—the same type of support model the firm has successfully used with the Credit One Corporate Bank Headquarters and the first building at the UNLV Harry Reid Research and Technology Park. “Hybrid structures allow a more efficient design of the reinforced concrete structural elements as well as of the steel structural elements,” Burke commented.

From an aesthetic front, functional spaces support end users with abundant access to outdoors and daylight with large perimeter windows. Burke Construction Group will also employ virtual design and construction strategies to create multi-dimensional representations of physical and functional characteristics of the buildings.

“The different technologies Burke uses allows the team to run clash detections, model 3D spaces and visualize what the project will look like through a 360-degree visual of the space,” Stuart explained. “Another added benefit is that those tools and technology give us the ability to coordinate projects earlier and mitigate and reduce construction requests for information and change orders.”

Since forming in early 2018, Matter Real Estate has rapidly advanced and emerged as a leading developer with approximately 2 million square feet of commercial and industrial projects underway. Some of Matter Real Estate’s other Las Vegas projects include the recent groundbreaking of the 725,000-square-foot Matter Logistics Center @ West Cheyenne Avenue, the 450,000-square-foot Matter Park @ Henderson, now under construction, the new 150,000-square-foot Matter @ Craig Road, and the 135,000-square-foot Matter Business Park @Warm Springs, now nearing completion.
