CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX) announced today that CEMEX USA finished supplying more than 170,000 cubic yards of concrete for the construction of the newly-opened Chase Center and surrounding structures in San Francisco, Calif. The premier entertainment and retail complex is the new home for the six-time NBA Champion Golden State Warriors.
Construction on Chase Center, the new jewel in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood, began in January 2017, and over the span of construction, CEMEX provided general contractor Mortensen | Clark with 114,000 cubic yards of concrete for the arena itself and an additional 60,000 cubic yards for the foundation, underground support and a nearby office building. The privately-financed Chase Center is expected to host nearly 200 events per year. The arena features 18,000 seats, more than 130 premium spaces including traditional suites and more than three acres of publicly accessible plazas and open space.
