Plescia Construction & Development is a commercial general contractor and construction management firm building in Pembroke Pines — one of the largest cities in Broward County and a major suburban market in western Broward. From the retail corridors around Pembroke Lakes Mall to the Memorial West healthcare campus, City Center, and the city’s office and education base, we build to the standard — and the strict Broward code — this fast-grown community demands.
Commercial Construction in Pembroke Pines
Pembroke Pines is one of South Florida’s great suburban success stories — a master-planned city that grew into a deep, varied commercial market. Retail anchors much of it, from Pembroke Lakes Mall to the Shops at Pembroke Gardens and the corridors along Pines Boulevard; the Memorial Hospital West campus anchors a major healthcare sector; City Center and the surrounding buildings carry a growing office and civic market; and one of the largest municipal education systems in the state drives institutional construction. Each of these asks something specific from a contractor, and we build to it.
Our Pembroke Pines work spans the full range of commercial space:
- Retail and restaurant — shopping-center, restaurant, and storefront build-outs along Pines Boulevard and the city’s retail corridors.
- Healthcare and medical office — exam suites, imaging, and ambulatory space serving the Memorial West campus and the city’s providers.
- Office and civic — Class A office, civic, and mixed-use at City Center and across the city.
- Education and institutional — academic and institutional space serving the city’s schools and colleges.
- Industrial and flex — distribution, service, and flex space along the city’s commercial corridors.
Neighborhoods We Serve
We work throughout Pembroke Pines — the Pines Boulevard and Pembroke Lakes retail corridors, the Memorial West and healthcare campuses, City Center, and the residential and commercial communities of western Pembroke Pines. Every project runs through the City of Pembroke Pines building department.


Permitting and Code in Pembroke Pines
As part of Broward County, Pembroke Pines sits in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone — the strictest part of the Florida Building Code — and its location in low-lying western Broward, at the edge of the Everglades, makes stormwater and flood management central to site design. Building here means designing for hurricane wind and water, through the City of Pembroke Pines.
Several requirements shape commercial work here:
- High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) — wind-load and missile-impact design govern the envelope, with products carrying Miami-Dade Notices of Acceptance (NOAs).
- Stormwater and flood management — low-lying western Broward and the Everglades edge make drainage, retention, and FEMA flood-zone compliance a major part of site work.
- Building recertification — Broward’s recertification and Florida’s milestone inspection programs drive structural and facade repairs on existing buildings.
- Suburban-corridor logistics — active retail and healthcare corridors make staging, phasing, and traffic management central to many projects.
Designing for wind and water from the start is what keeps a Pembroke Pines project on schedule.

How We Manage Risk on Pembroke Pines Projects
From a shopping-center renovation to a medical office build-out, the same discipline applies: build to the HVHZ and the flood requirements, plan the logistics realistically, protect the businesses and patients around the work, and keep life-safety systems live throughout. We coordinate deliveries, phasing, and inspections with owners, tenants, and the City of Pembroke Pines, and we carry the insurance limits and trade relationships that Pembroke Pines ownership expects.
Every job runs through a single point of accountability. Owners, tenants, the building department, and the design team work through one team that owns the schedule, the budget, and the safety plan — not a chain of subcontractors pointing at each other.
Representative Commercial Work
Plescia’s portfolio spans retail, healthcare, office, and institutional work of the kind Pembroke Pines demands. While every market has its own specifics, the discipline is the same one we bring to projects across our Florida, New York, New Jersey, and Texas markets: realistic schedules, transparent budgets, and a finished space that performs. We’re glad to walk prospective Pembroke Pines clients through relevant past work during an initial conversation.
