Challenges
The existing building was not used for tenants and the foundation needed to be retrofit to house a commercial dining establishment. The older waterproofing materials were inadequate and needed to be completely overhauled to be brought up to code for the restaurant. Plus, existing floors exhibited signs of erosion that required removal and repair to prep for new commercial flooring solution installation.

Black Bear’s Solution

After a thorough assessment of the space, it was determined that a new moisture resistant product needed to be installed, and aggressive patching and repair of the concrete foundation was needed prior to the new product installation. In addition to the retrofit of an older building to house a new dining establishment, Eventide looked to Black Bear’s floor to complement the brand and customer experience. A polished concrete was used to achieve this unique appearance that would define this brand’s Fenway location.
