PROJECT HIGHLIGHT

The Momentary Visual and Performing Arts

Located a few blocks from downtown Bentonville, Arkansas, the Momentary extends the vision of Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art to incorporate the visual and performing arts.  The project is an adaptive reuse of a decommissioned Kraft Foods plant less than two miles from the Crystal Bridges main campus. 

As an adaptive reuse project, FSGC’s role included installation of 25 New Deep Foundation Micropiles as well as Structural Underpinning with 26 Micropiles and 9 Pile Caps.

Learn more about the Momentary Visual and Performing Arts Center.

FSGC is committed to safety, service, and excellence.  We look forward to partnering with you to design and build the best solutions for your project. Contact us today!
