BEVERLY, Mass., March 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Connolly
Brothers Inc., a construction management firm serving private
commercial, industrial and institutional clients, recently
completed a 52,000 square-foot design-build fit-up project for
Calare Properties. The facility, located in Milford, MA, will serve as a new Commonwealth
of Massachusetts 911 Public Safety
Answering Point, State 911 Training Center, Municipal Police
Training Committee Academy and Offices for the Massachusetts
Department of Correction Professional Standards Unit.
"This project provides a state-of-the-art facility for the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts to
support its public safety initiatives," says Bailey Duffy, associate at Calare Properties.
"We are very grateful to have partnered with Connolly Brothers and
the user state agencies in successfully completing this complex
redevelopment."
The two-story building was vacant for seven years, thereby
presenting challenges for Connolly's design team. At first, it was
critical to ascertain an understanding of the existing
infrastructure, such as underground plumbing and structural
components. Connolly proceeded to update the structural
requirements, such as reinforcing second-floor and roof bar joists,
strengthening steel column brace frames and creating four new grade
beams, in order to meet updated building code requirements for use
group risk category of the building. Connolly provided additional
accessible entrances and replaced the exterior stairs with new
granite.
The electrical requirements to support the 911 Communication
Center required a high level of coordination between Connolly's
design and construction teams, as this included design of
twenty-two workstation consoles that support the intricate
technological infrastructure needed to support the operating
requirements for a 911 emergency dispatch center.
"This project exemplified how outstanding teamwork delivers a
successful project," says Connolly Brothers President and CEO,
Jay Connolly. "Each and every member
of this project from preconstruction through design &
engineering and then construction was fully committed to the group
effort and the results showed. The project was delivered on time
and on budget and we look forward to continuing our relationship
with the Calare Team in the future."
Connolly served as both Architect of Record and Construction
Manager for this design-build project. The project team also
included Platinum Fire Protection, D+D/DNET and Tech
Mechanical.
