A recent example of Chris-Tel
Construction’s commitment to
quality excellence is the Westin
Conference Center facility at
Tarpon Point, in Cape Coral,
Florida. That facility is valued
at roughly $15 million, and fea-
tures a 35,000 square foot ball-
room capable of being divided
into six distinct meeting spaces
for up to 1,950 guests.
Other features of that proj-
ect include: a 4,700 square
foot pre-function area; a 1,700
square foot terrace overlooking
a local river estuary; a state-of-
the-art catering kitchen; office
and storage space on the sec-
ond and third floors; a paved
parking lot; a timber pedestrian
bridge; and a portè cochere.
“That was a great project,” How-
ard says. “We are very proud of
the result we delivered there.”
That project is not just a good
example of Chris-Tel’s crafts-
manship because Howard says
so – the industry at large agrees.
At the 2018 Lee Building Indus-

Conference Center won the
category for ‘Best Commercial
Contractors Project – Hospitality
– $5 million to $8 million.’
An even more recent example
of the company’s award-winning
dedication to quality, mean-
while, is the Estero Boulevard
Improvements in Fort Myers
Beach. Chris-Tel was selected
to provide Construction Manag-
er-at-Risk services on that multi-
phased project, and they are
currently working on segment
three of six.

Boulevard includes: roadway
and infrastructure improve-
