PNC Bank ADA Remediation Design - E419 Beaumont Central

The PNC Bank ADA Remediation Design - E419 Beaumont Central project at 4285 E. Lucas Drive in Beaumont has completed its construction work. The site passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in August 2026, confirming that the renovation is finished. This project focused on exterior accessibility upgrades with a total estimated cost of $500,000. The scope covered 8,560 square feet of improvements, resulting in a cost of $58 per square foot.

The work included replacing the sidewalk, installing new curb ramps, and upgrading ADA parking and pavement. These changes were designed to improve site accessibility for customers and staff. The project was registered with TDLR in April 2026, with plan review completed in May 2026. Construction began in July 2026 and concluded in August 2026, a scheduled build window of 45 days.

Project Context and Comparison

This renovation is part of a broader effort by PNC Bank, N.A., which has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $1,775,000 across Texas. These include locations in Dallas, Allen, Plano, Longview, and Brownsville. Michael Baker International served as the design firm of record for this Beaumont project, similar to its role in five other PNC Bank renovations. The estimated cost of $500,000 is above the Jefferson County median of $250,000 for similar renovation filings. However, the $58 per square foot cost is below the county median of $88 per square foot.

The scheduled build window of 45 days is shorter than the county median of 104 days for comparable projects. This rapid timeline reflects the focused scope of exterior accessibility upgrades. The project is privately funded on private land for private use. The final inspection passed in August 2026, confirming that the construction is complete and the site meets the required accessibility standards.
