We were pleased to tackle a challenging project for the Park Street School that involved building a new three-story addition within the confines of their courtyard to add two new reading labs and admissions space for the staff. Although this project was very logistically challenging and had a tight schedule, we were able to turnover the space in time for the Fall 2024 semester.

We are very excited to be teaming up with Boston University and MPM Architects on another exciting project. The new Jimenez Lab Renovation is well underway and we are honored to be part of Boston Universities extensive research program. 

The Jewett House project is a full renovation of a 1913 3-story home that will be home to the Dean of Harvard. Slated to be completed right after the new year, the home will include all new finishes, MEPs, and landscaping while still maintaining the historical details of the home. The house abuts the Center for World Religions building at Harvard and requires careful communication and coordination to complete the project.

This recently completed project at MIT’s Sloan School of Management has transformed an existing basement-level locker room and furniture storage area into a modern study room suite. By repurposing these underutilized areas, the renovation has provided MIT’s students with a more conducive space for studying and collaboration.
