The Reading Eagle
Location: Reading, PA
Square Footage: 84,000 New
Completion: 2009 for Construction, 2010 for Integration

The Reading Eagle, an independent newspaper organization, is in the process of consolidating their remote packaging operation with their printing operation in a new multi level on-site building expansion.  ArcWest Architects was contacted by The Busby Group to assist in packaging equipment vendor interviews and coordination.  To reduce project cost, reuse of existing packaging equipment including a Schure palletizer, NP630 inserter, stackers, conveyors and pallets racks was a top priority.

ArcWest Architects provided individualized “ala carte” services and worked as part of the team to inventory existing equipment and provide coordination and installation documents for use by the Reading Eagle and multiple vendors.
