The $9-million renovation of the Addison Elementary School complex in the historic Georgetown area of Washington, D.C., unearthed the historic character of the original 124-year-old school while transforming it into a contemporary facility.
Joint-venture partners Columbia Enterprises of Washington and Forrester Construction Co. of Rockville, Md., began the project in April 2008 and completed it in January. Scope of work included the addition of seven new classrooms, a multipurpose room, computer rooms, a health suite and other amenities.
