Clark Construction Company has a big project on their hands.
Michigan State University recently named the Lansing firm as the General Contractor for major renovation on Bailey and Rather Halls.
CCC has worked with MSU on several projects in the past.
“We understand their mode of operation and expectations,” says Gary Ciampa, Project Director fo
r CCC, “and the exceptional pre-construction services we offer put our projects on the right path for success through construction.”
CCC’s $24.9 million contract will include architectural upgrades to all student rooms, new study and gaming areas as well as added offices, meeting and student gathering spaces and renovations to the halls’ communal bathrooms.
According to Ciampa, the upgrades will enhance the students’ living experience. “The renovation of the building’s commons areas will provide a larger, more inviting area for students to study and socialize,” he says.
The local construction company won’t be the only benefactor of the work. CCC will work with nearly 30 different trade contractors on the project and project to employ an average daily workforce of 80, and could employ up to 150 during peak times.
MSU’s total investment in the project is expected to reach $34 million and will encompass 200,000 square feet of student housing within the Brody Complex. All work is slated to be completed by June 2012.
