Construction of the new four-story school for 1,725 students was conducted directly adjacent to the existing high school and football stadium, surrounded by a residential neighborhood, elementary school and middle school. The existing high school remained open and occupied during construction and was ultimately demolished upon completion. The site of the existing school provided space for new parking lots and athletic fields. Major reconfiguration to vehicular and pedestrian infrastructure included construction of a new rotary, which required the relocation of utilities that served the existing high school and adjacent residences. Complex site and foundation work required dewatering and support of excavation with piles and lagging.

The new school building offers 19 CTE programs, including robotics, culinary arts, cosmetology, horticultural studies and visual arts. Shared spaces, such as the cafeteria, gymnasium and auditorium, link the building together in the center to provide a commons space for student and public gatherings. The main lobby connects the front public entrance to the rear student entrance with a 40-foot curtain wall system.

Working with the City of Cambridge and HMFH Architects, we helped outline a multi-phased, fast-track improvement plan that would provide increased program space and improved infrastructure, while incorporating enough sustainable elements to earn LEED Gold certification. The project phasing was specifically designed to maximize construction activity during school vacations and minimize impact on student life. The upgrades were spread across the campus library arts building and several classroom buildings, and included updated M/E/P systems with new rooftop units, updated fixtures and finishes and new ceilings in several of the buildings. In addition, the building received a full restoration and preservation of the exterior limestone and concrete façade.

The project included a phased construction approach in a fully occupied 342,000 sq. ft. high school. In order to create available space within the building for construction, the 9th grade students were setup in a temporary residence at a nearby school. The project scope included selective demolition of portions of the existing building totaling 78,300 sq. ft., addition of 105,000 sq. ft. and reconstruction of the remaining 263,700 sq. ft. existing two story school. The revitalized space includes new classrooms, labs, offices and administration space, as well as limited renovations to the facility’s existing ice rink and field house. The addition, which is located where a portion of the existing building was demolished, houses a new cafeteria, media center, auditorium and fine arts educational space. The project achieved Massachusetts Collaborative for High Performance Schools (MA-CHPS) standards.

The new Putnam Vocational Technical High School was constructed on an occupied site while students remained in the existing facility. Upon completion of the new building, students were relocated and the old school was demolished. The cleared area was re-used to create parking for the 1,600 students and faculty. Our team developed detailed, comprehensive schedules to carefully phase demolition of the existing building around the active high school campus. Self-perform capabilities were utilized for carpentry, concrete and rebar work to help accelerate the schedule.

The project received the achieved Massachusetts Collaborative for High Performance Schools (MA-CHPS) award. Initiatives included incorporating superior energy performing mechanical systems, waste stream reduction (during construction), minimizing water consumption, maximizing natural light throughout the building and improving issues of indoor air quality. This project was constructed through a joint venture with the Morganti Group.

Additionally, as part of the project the existing cafeteria was demolished to create a 5-station food court with teacher’s cafeteria and bathrooms. The existing athletic fields were renovated and three all-purpose fields were added along with new boiler and upgraded M/E/P services. The school’s pool was also replaced along with the exterior framed wall and reinforcement of pool walls in the basement; mechanical renovation of this area included installation of “duct sox” style ductwork and a Dectron dehumidifier to condition the pool air.
