Funk Zone Gates Receive Santa Barbara Beautiful Award

Funk Zone Gates Receive Santa Barbara Beautiful Award

Santa Barbara Beautiful celebrated its 50th year of honoring locals who beautify our city. The event took place at the Hahn Hall Music Academy of the West, a past SBB award recipient and a sublime location for the special event. The celebration was a momentous time filled with appreciation for those who help create and enrich Santa Barbara’s unique beauty and charm.

Young Construction is honored to have been part of SBB’s golden anniversary and to have been presented with the Hugh Petersen Award for Art in Public Places, acknowledging the Anacapa Project Gates located on the 00 Block of East Yanonali Street. The recipients for this award included:

The Anacapa Gates are located in the hip and contemporary heart of the Funk Zone. The Gates consist of six murals fastened to corrugated steel gates and well integrated with the building’s décor and overhangs, and down lighting that illuminate the walkway at night. The murals captivate passersby and cultivate Santa Barbara’s eclectic and creative sub-culture.

Thank you Santa Barbara Beautiful for including us in your organization’s wonderful milestone!

Client Words

Re-Building historic adobe structures in the Pueblo Veijo district downtown Santa Barbara is a very challenging endeavor. The solution to those challenges was having Young Construction as our contractor. Young Construction has the respect and relationships with the Historic Landmarks Committee and the City of Santa Barbara Building Department which made a very difficult process run smoothly. Having a job site in the downtown area where set backs are tight, parking is difficult and traffic can be a problem; Young Construction managed those issues with great ease. The results speak for themselves; these Historic Houses of Merit that Young Construction built have been featured in several publication boasting of the quality of workmanship and design.

Young construction did a great job of on site management and cost control—with a lot of on site issues butterflies, archeology and bluff stairs—I want to thank you from all of us on Moreranch Road.
