WATERTOWN, S.D. (May 24, 2012) – Eidco Construction, one of the fastest growing commercial general contractors in the United States, today announced that it has been retained by Lexington Realty International to complete two build-out projects at The Watertown Mall, located at 1300 9th Avenue SE in Watertown, S.D. Eidco will renovate a 4,016-square-foot Famous Footwear store, as well as a 4,885-square-foot location of clothier rue21.

Eidco Project Manager Larry Vivoda will work with representatives from parent company Brown Shoe to oversee the tenant improvement project for Famous Footwear, a brand of Brown Shoe that currently has more than 950 stores nationwide.
