Selected Retail & Restaurant Projects
Reigstad has worked alongside architects, owners, and contractors on retail and restaurant projects for over 40 years. These engagements range from single-tenant buildouts to multi-use shopping centers. Each one requiring structural solutions tailored to the building's program, timeline, and construction environment.
The projects listed here represent a cross-section of that work: neighborhood credit unions, auto dealerships, food-and-beverage venues, and regional retail centers. What they share is a structural challenge that called for more than a stamped drawing. Our structural engineering consulting approach on each began with understanding the architect's intent and the owner's constraints, then finding the most direct path between those two things.
Retail & Restaurant Projects
A representative selection of completed structural engineering engagements in the retail and restaurant sector.
Schmelz Countryside Alfa Romeo
Auto dealership structural engineering, a building type that demands long clear spans, carefully coordinated curtain wall framing, and slab systems that support heavy vehicle loads without interrupting the showroom floor.
Anchor Bank Wayzata
Financial branch construction combining architectural expression with the precise structural requirements of a secure commercial facility in a high-visibility location.
Spire Credit Union
Structural design for a credit union branch, coordinating with the project architect to deliver a system that met the program requirements and construction schedule.
City Place
Mixed-use retail development requiring structural systems that could accommodate multiple tenant configurations. Read more in our City Place progress update.
Blue Barn
Structural engineering for a retail venue with distinctive architectural character, the kind of project where structural steel engineering plays a visible role in the finished building.
LuLu's Public House
Restaurant structural work, including coordination of kitchen and mechanical loads, floor system design, and integration with the architect's interior layout.
Hoigaard's
A well-known Twin Cities retail destination. Reigstad provided structural engineering support for this project, working within the constraints of an established commercial building.
Butler North Shopping Mall
Regional shopping center structural work, a scale of project that requires coordinated construction inspection services alongside the design work to keep complex, phased construction on schedule.
Manning's Sports Bar and Grill
Food-and-beverage venue structural engineering, balancing open floor plan requirements with the structural demands of a commercial kitchen and occupied assembly space.
