Commercial Mezzanine Demolition – Patio Line, Centre Street, Calgary
Makki Demolition was contracted to remove a commercial mezzanine structure at a retail property on Centre Street in Calgary. The elevated platform, originally installed to maximize showroom space, was being decommissioned as part of a property modernization and tenant reconfiguration initiative. The project required precision structural engineering, controlled disassembly of steel framing, and careful coordination to protect the ground-level retail space and avoid disruption to the active business below.
