RUSH Construction will complete interior renovations for Playalinda Brewing Co.

(Scheduled to Open in Late 2014)

Bryan and Donna Scott, owners of Barn Light Electric, are preparing to open Playalinda Brewing Company in the old hardware store on Washington Ave. in Historic Downtown Titusville. The building was originally built in 1910, and functioned as a hardware store until the early 1980s. Interior renovations are being done by RUSH Construction, who the Scotts are already familiar with (RUSH previously worked on Barn Light's Manufacturing Facility).

In order to protect the history of this historic space in Downtown Titusville, every effort is being made to preserve as many original items as possible. This includes the antique cabinetry, tin ceiling, storefront, entrance, and doors.

"By far the most exciting part of the project is the opportunity to work with the Scotts again and to be a part of their exciting new business venture," said William Chivers (President, RUSH). "We are also excited to be a part of the first microbrewery in North Brevard and the opportunity to work together to design, engineer, and blend a state-of-the-art system like a new microbrewery into a historic building while retaining the historic elements as much as possible."

Playalinda Brewing Co. is expected to open in November, 2014.

Meet Shawn Lucas, Associate Safety Director/Project Engineer:

Shawn & Becki Lucas

Born and raised in New Smyrna Beach, Shawn Lucas has been an employee of RUSH Construction since April, 2007. As Associate Safety Director/Project Engineer, Lucas ensures compliance with OSHA and other applicable safety standards. A sarcastic prankster with a great sense of humor and a competitive spirit, his character adds a unique ingredient to the atmosphere at RUSH.

Shawn's first few months at the company were spent painting the Lightning Mitigation Towers at KSC's Launch Complex 41. He describes a later project, painting the Water Tower at KSC's Pad 39B, as his favorite, due to the challenging nature of the work and the significance of the location. "It was a challenge because we had to erect scaffolding around the entire tower," says Shawn. "It was also just a cool experience to work in a place that has seen so many significant historical moments."

When asked what he considers to be the best part about working at RUSH, Shawn remarks upon the strong family atmosphere that binds the company together. "You hear about it all the time with employers, but here it really does feel like a family."

Shawn has been married to his wife, Becki (pictured with him), for 9 years. Some of his favorite hobbies include golf, snowboarding, and surfing, as well as coaching his 8-year-old son, Wyatt, in any sports he's involved in.

An avid college football fan, Shawn's favorite quote is: "You can't spell Citrus without UT."
