Tasked with the first design-build project undertaken by California’s Department of General Services, the project team was committed to make delivery of the new 374,000-sq-ft home for California’s Health and Human Services Agency as efficient as possible.
The 125,000-sq-ft First Americans Museum is both a cultural center and museum that pays tribute to the history of Native American tribes and their connection to Oklahoma.
This $6.7-million, 18,000-sq-ft library required the project team to make extensive modifications to achieve a curved design—all while working with materials that were not intended to bend along a curve.
After construction of the $124-million First Americans Museum was put on hold because of a funding reallocation, the project team developed a strategy for constructing the museum in phases to see the project to completion.
With multiple police departments housed in aging and undersized facilities across Salem, Ore., the city needed a new headquarters to bring 29 departments under one roof.
Situated on a hilltop with panoramic views of four iconic Northwest mountains, Willamette National Cemetery’s natural landscape both helped and hindered its phased expansion. The design-build project for the Dept. of Veteran Affairs (VA) expanded and improved the cemetery after a 38.2-acre land acquisition.
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.
