Belmont, MA – Vantage Builders, Inc. announced that it completed the build-out of Cal Verde Naturals’ first cannabis dispensary, located at 1010 Pleasant St. in Belmont.
Cal Verde offers a wide range of products at the dispensary, including flower, vaporizers, pre-rolls, concentrates, edibles, tinctures and topicals. The 4,100sf dispensary began serving its customers in April.
Vantage Builders teamed up with Caveney Architectural Collaborative on the project, which included significant sitework, full interior fit-out, and MEP systems work. The dispensary includes distinct entrance and exit vestibules, reception area, retail sales area, prep room for order fulfillment, secure vault storage, security room and a break area for Cal Verde’s staff.
The retail area is brightly lit by both high-end fixtures and natural light from the store’s many windows. The space features a dark wood, coffered ceiling, custom millwork throughout, and areas of both hard wood and ceramic tile flooring, all of which are designed to create an environment that is both relaxing and professional.
A long product display and point of sales area allows for multiple customers to receive assistance simultaneously. The dispensary includes an ADA-compliant section of the sales area, and product menus and information are displayed on several large, flat screen monitors.
The Vantage Builders team provided design-build services for the project’s significant MEP work. There was installation of new or modifications of existing mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and fire alarm systems. Exterior work included stormwater management, drainage, fencing, and a new parking lot.
The project team included Caveney Architectural Collaborative and Bohler Engineering Group.
