HAMLET HOMES UNVEILS COMMUNITY MURAL IN CELEBRATION OF GRANTON SQUARE AND CORPORATE OFFICE GRAND OPENING
Hamlet Homes is proud to announce the unveiling of a community mural wall at the grand opening of Granton Square and the new
Hamlet Homes headquarters on Friday, November 1
st at noon, located at 84 West 4800 South, Murray, Utah. Following the ribbon-cutting and unveiling, guests can stay to observe notable members of the community — including city officials,
Hamlet Homes owners and employees, and involved muralists — paint a fish onto the mural. Attendees can also tour the new model home and corporate offices, partake in free entrees and desserts from three different food trucks, and take home giftbags and giveaway prizes. “Moving our headquarters to a modern building marks a new day for Hamlet Homes,” states Barry Gittleman, President/COO and Owner of
Hamlet Homes. “We knew we needed to celebrate our new ownership with a splash, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to do that in collaboration with Murray City. We know great things are on the horizon for
Hamlet Homes!” Many years ago, on this same property stood what locals refer to as “The Fish Food Factory.” An iconic Murray landmark, The Fish Factory was demolished following a fire in 2015. To keep the local history intact, muralist David Habben, of HABBENINK, used this historical inspiration for his amazing artistic details in the Granton Square Mural. Thanks to supply donations from RMC Painting and PPG Paints, the mural — a 286’ wide and 20’ tall masterpiece — is soon to be an icon itself for the Murray community. “When we began developing Granton Square, we faced the challenge of making a big, solid gray cinder block wall enhance the community aesthetic,” says Tami Ostmark, Vice President of Marketing for
Hamlet Homes. “We got creative, pulled the community together, and now, the Granton Square Mural Wall is one of the biggest community projects we have accomplished. It will leave a long-standing legacy for
Hamlet Homes.” Granton Square is
Hamlet Homes’ newest townhome community — the fourth of five communities Hamlet opened in 2019 alone. The neighborhood boasts 61 three-bedroom townhomes in a central Murray location. Homes features a large open floorplan, a spacious two-car garage, and highly coveted rooftop deck options highlighted by astounding views of both the mountains and city. “We are very pleased to have Granton Square, another quality
Hamlet Homes development, here in Murray City,” says Murray City Mayor, Blair Camp. “This new community will provide homes for individuals and families who want to be a part of the Murray community in this convenient location. In addition,
Hamlet’s new corporate headquarters is a magnificent addition to this previously underutilized property. Congratulations on another excellent development in our city!” Sharing the spotlight for the grand opening is the new headquarters of
Hamlet Homes. The move launches a fresh beginning for
Hamlet Homes’ new owners, including Barry Gittleman, President and COO; Jon Southern, Vice President of Construction; Phil Mosher, Vice President of Sales; and Elliot Jenkins, Vice President and CFO. The group purchased the company in 2017 and have been refining what that looks like ever since.
Hamlet Homes will celebrate the opening of five new communities of townhomes and single-family homes in 2019 alone.
