STAR Design-Build Completes Avon Lake Pet Spa
New Facility Features Private Suites, Lazy River, and Indoor/Outdoor Play Areas
AMHERST, OH (December 15, 2008) – STAR Design-Build recently completed work on a new facility for Avon Lake Animal Care Center. The new building features indoor and outdoor play areas and a lazy river pool for pets.
The project would not have been possible without gaining local zoning approval, a valuable part of STAR’s process. The land where the Center stands was originally zoned for residential, not commercial use, a common hurdle which STAR can help their customers overcome. They worked proactively to convince local residents and city officials to allow the zoning change so that Avon Lake Animal Care Center owner Dr. Jim Haddad could create a “campus” featuring the Animal Care Center and the affiliated Avon Lake Animal Clinic.
“We wanted to open a pet spa to complement our veterinary practice, and we needed a very specialized facility to provide the desired level of service to our customers and their pets,” said Dr. Haddad. “Working with STAR’s on-staff architect helped us get exactly the layout we wanted, and their help navigating the zoning process was invaluable.”
The 24,800 square-foot pre-engineered steel building features uniquely designed suites with private play areas, a pet apparel shop, and indoor and outdoor fenced playgrounds. The spa is located at 33757 Lake Road in Avon Lake, and the affiliated Avon Lake Animal Clinic is right across the street, offering standard veterinary care and 24-hour care in emergencies.
