Downtown Dave gives tour of Bodman PLC build out

For the past six years, Dave DeShone has been working almost exclusively on projects in downtown Grand Rapids. The tenants of 99 Monroe know him as "Downtown Dave," the friendly superintendent for several construction projects in the building. Dave is known for scheduling noisy tasks around conference calls and meetings, much to all tenants' appreciation.

Currently under construction, the office build-out for Bodman PLC features work spaces for 30 employees, several conference rooms, and spectacular views of the city.

Every time I get into an elevator, I make sure I say ‘hi’ to the people when I’m in there. Just to be friendly.

Dave DeShone
Project Superintendent, Owen‑Ames‑Kimball Co.
