This page covers how Plescia serves Augusta—the districts we build in, the commercial sectors and project types we deliver, the local approvals and logistics that shape every job, and the kind of commercial work that defines our portfolio across the area.

Where We Build: Augusta Districts We Serve

Augusta is Georgia’s second-largest metro, anchored by a major medical hub and the U.S. Army’s cyber center. We work across:

  • Downtown Augusta and Broad Street – office, retail, hospitality, and mixed-use redevelopment;
  • The medical district (Medical College of Georgia / Wellstar MCG) – hospital, research, and medical-office development;
  • The Fort Eisenhower and cyber corridor – technology, office, and mission-critical facilities;
  • The Washington Road retail corridor;
  • The manufacturing and industrial districts along the river and I-20.

Permitting and Code in Augusta

Commercial construction in Augusta is governed by the Georgia State Minimum Standard Codes (based on the International Building Code), enforced through the Augusta-Richmond County consolidated government. Its medical and cyber economy drives specialized commercial work.

  • Georgia State Minimum Standard Codes — state-adopted IBC with local plan review, permitting, and inspections;
  • Healthcare and mission-critical — specialized medical, research, and secure-facility systems for hospital and cyber projects;
  • Stormwater and site work — Georgia EPD and local stormwater and erosion-control requirements;
  • Savannah River flood considerations on low-lying and riverfront sites

We design and build to these from day one so a Augusta project clears review and performs for the long term.
