New Beginnings: Groundbreakings & Ribbon Cutting

Randolph Lyons Elementary School Groundbreaking

The Randolph Lyons Elementary School celebrated the start of construction on a new school building with a groundbreaking ceremony on April 10, 2023. CHA is providing OPM services for a new 74,720 SF elementary school building. CHA assisted the Town of Randolph and the Randolph Public School District in completing a comprehensive feasibility study phase, which included a district-wide enrollment study as well as helping to secure public support and state funding for the project. The new facility will provide modern, engaging, and flexible spaces for PreK-5 learning, increase instructional classrooms and specialized teaching spaces, feature updated building systems (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing), and improve parking and site circulation.

Maynard Fire Station Grand Opening

The Maynard Fire Department celebrated the grand opening of its new fire station on January 21, 2023. The celebration included fire department members uncoupling hoses to honor the new station in place of a traditional ribbon cutting. CHA provided OPM services for the construction of the new 17,500 SF fire station, designed and built with sufficient space and in a configuration that will meet the department’s needs for many years.

Marlborough Public Library Will Celebrate Completion This Spring

The Marlborough Public Library is undergoing a $24 million renovation and expansion project slated for completion in the spring of this year. Built in the early 1900s and last renovated in 1969, the library lacked room for meetings and quiet study. A phased design and construction plan is expanding the existing facility from 22,300 SF to 38,306 SF. While most of the existing building was demolished and will be replaced with a new addition, the historic facade and front rooms have been retained and incorporated into the new design. Watch for more news of this exciting project completion.
