Some standard problems encountered in this project were lead time for specialty items, providing correct verbiage terms for areas to eliminate the need for a commercial health inspection (drivers refreshment center and break room rather than bar and kitchen), and the typical weather issues attributed to excess heat during the summer. Logistically, the biggest challenges came with the shared woes of Covid affecting the entire industry.
