The Wheeler School, Gilder Center for the Arts

Construction progresses at Emma Willard School’s Alice Dodge Wallace Center for the Performing Arts with the recent pouring of foundation for the new Arts Wing.

Our design repurposes the circa 1910 Alumnae Chapel, adds to it a new below-grade building, and connects both to the existing studio arts building, consolidating the arts in the center of the campus in Troy, NY.

Stay tuned for interior demolition progress of the Chapel!

Read about our new 22,000 square foot Science Center in “Designing Possibilities” from the Spring 2023 issue of Pomfret Magazine. The feature covers the project’s history and Shawmut Design & Construction’s progress on the three-story building. The new Science Center will serve as a hub for science, technology, engineering, and design for the Connecticut boarding and day school.

Harvard Divinity School’s rejuvenated Swartz Hall is now LEED Platinum certified. Our design of this new campus gateway reflects HDS’s commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. The existing granite building envelope is upgraded to exceed current efficiency standards using internal insulation, a seamless air barrier, and new high-performance windows. A new underground mechanical plant accommodates heat recovery and direct outside air handling units. Congratulations to HDS on their dedication to campus leadership in environmental sustainability.
