Cathedral High School

PROJECT TYPE Food Service / Academic	ARCHITECT Fishbrook Design Studio
PROJECT VALUE $1.6M	OWNER Cathedral High School

BWK Construction served as the general contractor for the Cathedral High School elevator addition project. This project involved installing a new 5 story elevator to the outside of the existing functioning school. There were also several other areas of the building that were renovated to bring up to the current ADA standards. The foundation for the elevator was quite involved as we needed to dewater and shore to install the foundation that was below the existing buildings footings. Protection and safety for not only the faculty and students but the neighborhood was a constant focus. Bringing in equipment and lifts was a daily struggle with the entrance to the building being on a small side street in Boston.
