ISC Contracting completes Art Mart makeover

The 25,000 square foot store is a St. Louis institution, known almost as much for its creative exterior as for its selection for professional artists and hobbists alike.

"With the re-opening of Highway 40, Art Mart's owners wanted to draw fresh attention to their store by giving the exterior a complete makeover," explains Dan Green, president of ISC, which served as general contractor on the work.

Working through winter weather and a busy holiday retail season, ISC was charged with completing demolition of the existing store front, and then making repairs and tuckpointing the existing structure. Crews then installed extensive exterior signage, banners, awnings and exterior lighting, all under the design direction of Winzen Millennium Design.

ISC Contracting is a St. Louis general contracting firm. With specialties in corporate interiors, tenant finishes and new construction, the firm has completed hundreds of turnkey assignments throughout the region since 1982.
