Tight Access in Rittenhouse Square
We took a call for a gut renovation on a classic 1920s rowhouse near Rittenhouse where space was practically nonexistent. The alley was barely wide enough for a wheelbarrow, let alone a service truck, and the neighbors were already sensitive about the construction noise. The crew needed a standard unit that wouldn't block the only material exit or turn into an eyesore for the residents next door, but the layout left us with almost zero clearance.
I sent our driver out with a standard construction unit and a specialized dolly to navigate the tight pavers without cracking them. We tucked the restroom behind the debris chute, securing it against the wind coming off the Schuylkill. We set up a twice-weekly cleaning schedule before 7 AM to keep odors down during the humid summer. The site super kept his permit valid because we kept the sidewalk clear, and his crew stayed focused on the job.
Keystone got the unit in a spot I didn't think was possible, and they kept it spotless all month.
