CNMI Governor Arnold Palacios and Lieutenant Governor David Apatang toured Atkins Kroll Saipan’s new Toyota and Lexus dealership at Chalan Pale Arnold in Puerto Rico. Tracy Guerrero, AK Saipan’s newly appointed General Manager, Clark Boswell, AK General Manager and Vice President for Guam and Saipan, and Neil Paynter, Principal Architect for Ari Partners Architecture shared construction progress of the new 43,800-square foot facility during an exclusive tour of the $23 million project which broke ground in March last year. Atkins Kroll anticipates a soft opening by November when all permits are complete.
Governor Palacios indicated that investments such as this one from companies like Atkins Kroll, bring additional optimism and confidence in the economic development and growth of the CNMI.
Atkins Kroll shared that in the coming months, the community will see significant progress to the exterior of the building, roadway improvements, and beautification to the surrounding landscape. The new dealership and service center will be the first of its kind in the NMI allowing residents to experience a world-class facility right here at home. Employees will also experience state-of-the-art equipment which will further their development and add to their skill sets.
