465/425 Medford Street
Charlestown, Massachusetts

Bowdoin Construction Corp. was retained as Design Builder for these intensive rehabilitation projects. These two consecutive and contiguous jobs totaling 365,000 square feet, were constructed over a fourteen month period. 465 Medford Street was completed in eight months and provided a comprehensive rehabilitation of three interconnected office buildings (shown below) totaling 185,000 square feet. The five-story portion required all new slabs, and all of the facilities required new roofing, windows, MEP systems, masonry restoration, as well as elevators and handicapped accessibility. One of the challenges for Bowdoin was tidal dewatering and significant structural shoring to support the mill building restorations. Phase one also included the fit-out of all common areas. 425 Medford Street, which was completed in six months, included restoration of the exterior building envelope of a five-story, 180,000 square foot facility for adaptive reuse as an office and distribution facility for Sales Link, Inc. New roofing, glazing, MEP systems, elevators, and ADA compliance were a part of the program. This project also included the fit-out of all office space and common areas for Sales Link.
