Our property at 296 South State Street has an existing "ranchistyle" house on it.
The pre~iot;~`~owriers of the property were adamant aboufi fiiie`~ii four year otd
custom build house and gazebo being preserved. Our plans call for bringing the
utilities up to code in the house, freshening up its look and using it as a company
Conference Center and Lodge.
The house is in excellent structural condition. It has over three thousand feet of
floor space, including; six bedrooms, a large "gathering" room, and a large
dining or "conference" room. Along with furnishing the house stylishly, we plan to
accentuate the "western" feel of the house with appropriate art and amenities.
The Conference Center and Lodge, though not our primary place of doing
business, will undoubtably compliment our main building and will perpetuate our
"down-to-earth, family-style" company culture. Uses of the Conference Center
and Lodge, include;
1) meeting space for departments of Alford Media
2) meeting space for clients of Alford Media
3~) lodging for out-of-town Alford Media employees
4) lodging for guests of Alford Media
5) meeting space for special groups
When combined with the technology employed by Alford Media, the
Conference Center and Lodge should offer a unique space for:
1) media supported meetings
2) training sessions
3) think tank groups
4) meetings that need to be recorded
5) meetings that need to be held in a secluded environment
We feel the Conference Center and Lodge will be a competitive asset insofar as
what other audio-visual companies have to offer their clientele. It should be a
unique source of pride for both Alford Media and the City of Coppell.
