Project Scale and Cost

At 10,000 square feet, the building is slightly larger than the median size for new construction filings in Montgomery County, which is 9,500 sq ft. The estimated cost of $1,500,000 is above the county median of $800,000 for similar projects. The cost per square foot is $150, which is higher than the county median of $100 per sq ft. This suggests a higher level of finish or specific structural requirements for the facility.

This extended timeline may reflect the complexity of the metal building construction or the specific needs of the Horseshoe Club facility.
