The Project : Marriott Hotels required upgrades to its in-house restaurant and hired Edgewater Construction to complete the renovations.

Edgewater built two new service stations, relocating an existing sink and new buffet lines with granite tops. The renovation also included installing bead board system and trim, door and frame, new shutter doors, wall sconces and chandeliers.
