Bowdoin Wins Merit Award for Pilgrim Academy Project

The Associated Builders and Contractors of Massachusetts has selected Bowdoin Construction as a Merit Award winner for the 20,000 SF expansion and renovation of a fully occupied special needs school. Bowdoin was presented with the award at the Excellence in Construction Awards dinner held at the Westin in Waltham on November 9th.

The new 10,000 SF single-story addition was constructed of structural steel, masonry and metal panels, and includes six classrooms, a cafeteria, offices, conference rooms, a training room, bathrooms and a new lobby. The existing 10,000 SF facility received renovations to all common areas, and two classrooms were modified to accommodate the tie in of the addition to the existing structure. The new main entrance features an inviting glass and brick facade. A new parking lot was added to the side of the existing building, and the front parking area was regraded, paved and landscaped.  Outdoor fenced in play areas were added to each side of the building. Bowdoin worked together with the school, FoxRock Properties, and Roth & Seelen Architects
