Drake University – Starbucks & Grease Interceptors

When Drake University and their food and facilities management company reached an agreement to continue their relationship, they decided to take action on several immediate upgrades to food facilities on campus. One of these upgrades was to a coffee shop in the Olmsted Center. After recently completing the Drake Relays Meet Operations remodel and the HVAC renovations at the Quads residence halls together, Drake engaged Story Construction to complete the Starbucks and corresponding grease interceptor projects to bring the facilities up to code. Story’s Small Projects Group carried out most of the work at the Starbucks build-out.

The Starbucks and grease interceptor projects were completed ahead of schedule and a few days after classes began for fall semester.
