This has been an amazing project! The Town of Swan River, the Town Council, all the vendors we worked with and the J.B Construction Crew all worked hard with us to see this phase come to fruition (and on schedule). We are very excited to turn the keys over to the new owners and we look forward to carrying on to Phase II this fall.
