This 10-story, mixed-use high-rise built on the site of the old Spinney & Caldwell Shoe Factory was completed at budget, but it fell behind schedule amid COVID-19.

The primary goal of this $17-million project was to construct and commission two large dry rooms in 15 weeks as part of an effort to make more than 2 million COVID-19 test kits per week. 

Lendlease (US) Construction LMB Inc. surmounted both construction and safety challenges with the Pfizer Plasmid DNA – Suites GH project in Andover, Mass.

The new school, which has 1,360 students, was designed to support a STEAM-based curriculum that includes “learning pods, flexible project areas, makerspaces and tech shops including a woodshop, broadcast studio, coding and web/graphic design lab and 3D design and computer-aided design labs,” according to the project team.

While replacing the existing 15-ft-long concrete slab bridge for this $7.2-million project, the team faced challenges that included compressible soils and tidal conditions. Because a sealed cofferdam was not employed, all work was conducted during 8-ft tidal cycles.

Reconstructing a busy roadway is tough under any circumstances. But undertaking such a major project at Logan International Airport, where hundreds of thousands of passengers arrive and depart each week in cars and buses, presented a host of challenges. 

This 45,000-sq-ft, $30.5-million project includes flexible classrooms, huddle spaces, makerspace and a sports lab for instruction and competition.

With a construction schedule developed around the Endicott College’ academic calendar, detailed coordination and meticulous schedule management were critical on the $44.5-million Samuel C. Wax Academic Center.

One of the first large-scale multifamily Passive House-certified  developments in Massachusetts, this $34.2-million project was also the largest new multifamily affordable housing projects in Cambridge in 40 years. 

The team preserved and restored the iconic Indiana limestone exterior of this 350,00-sq-ft, 1931-era Hartford, Conn. landmark with Art Deco features while the interior was fully gutted and renovated to create a modern office layout for state employees.
