The Meridian – Fashion Island

Custom Luxury on a Compressed Site—Delivered Without Delay


The Challenge

Seventy-two ultra-luxury condominiums. A narrow urban infill site. Custom steel framing. Underground parking. And every unit sold before construction was complete. The pressure to deliver was high and the penalties for missing deadlines were even higher.

The Meridian was more than a residential build. It was a time-sensitive promise made to high-net-worth buyers who expected perfection, not excuses.

What RED BRICK Is Delivering

We brought strategic planning, scheduling discipline, and risk oversight to:

  • Coordinate construction using a ConxTech steel system on a tight footprint
  • Sequence full-site underground parking alongside vertical unit delivery
  • Maintain real-time schedule tracking to protect against costly delay penalties
  • Support phased turnover of units with custom finishes and high-end specifications

Key Wins

  • Delivered all 72 units on time, avoiding liquidated damages and maintaining buyer trust
  • Maintained critical path visibility and schedule control through an extremely constrained site
  • Aligned all delivery milestones with sales commitments and occupancy expectations

Why It Matters

In ultra-luxury development, the product isn’t just physical, it’s reputational. Clients are unforgiving. Delays are expensive. Expectations are sky-high.

RED BRICK helped the New Home Company meet every delivery milestone without compromising finish quality, site safety, or financial outcomes.
