We continue to partner with the General Services Administration and the National Parks Service on a variety of museum collection storage projects across the Northeast region – building on our work for a strategic plan to house, preserve and protect historic artifacts for future generations. We are also working on conceptual designs for over 95,000 square feet of space for the National Parks of Boston, the USS Constitution Museum, and a new Visitors Center at the Charlestown Navy Yard in Boston.
We are currently wrapping up construction documents on a residential project in Dutchess County, New York.
