The Linden at Brookfield | Brookfield, CT
The Linden at Brookfield is a new 105,592 sf, 3-story senior living community in Brookfield, CT. While the project delivery method was ostensibly Construction Management at Risk, the challenges posed by using a new-to-the-team prefabricated structural system ended up creating a design-build scenario with the owner, architect, engineers, suppliers, trade contractors, and the construction team. The team worked diligently to solve the normal construction challenges, such as coordination between the structure and the building systems. These would have been simple solutions with standard construction, but the unique aspects of the panelized system demanded a more creative approach.

WYSH House | Meriden, CT
Beginning with Women and Families Center who worked with the city (variance for culvert) and secured a variety of funders (DOH, CHFA, Leviticus Fund); to QA&M who assembled consultants that considered neighborhood, target residents(youth aged 18-24 years), energy efficiency, and site challenges; to Montagno Construction who immediately and professionally handled every issue that arose; and to the supporters who donated household items to help these young people set up housekeeping, the design, construction, and occupancy of WYSH House exemplifies teamwork.
As the entire country shut down with the coronavirus pandemic, the lines of communication among all team members remained open. Through teamwork alone, we were able to complete this project in just 9 months. “We wish all our projects ran this smoothly.”

Rockview Phase II is a quality mixed-income development project with 62 affordable rentals and 16 market-rate units. The modern townhouses are in New Haven, Connecticut.

The Boys & Girls Club of Hartford (B&GC) Hartford South End opened in September 2021 and is the culmination of a high degree of collaboration and problem-solving between the City of Hartford, Hartford Public Schools, the B&GC and the entire design and construction team. With no other after-school facilities for children in this part of the city, the project filled a need for new facility that could bring education and recreational support services to 1,500 youth in a much-needed safe and nurturing environment.

Rowland Technology Addition / Expansion / Renovation | Wallingford, CT
A specialty manufacturer of high-performance plastic films, Rowland runs its Wallingford operations 24/7 to meet world-wide demand. This project involved renovating 50,000 sf of their existing manufacturing facility and a 37,000 sf addition/expansion of their warehouse and offices. Shutting down their operations during any phase of construction was not an option. Making that happen required long and short-term planning, shifting resources as needed, and constant communication (daily/weekly) between the owner, architect, subconsultants and suppliers. Even with Covid-19 arriving midway through construction, Milestone guided and orchestrated a team effort that delivered on-time and never-interrupted operations.

Connecticut Children’s Infusion Center and Gastrointestinal Clinic | Farmington, CT
The Infusion Center serves children who need intravenous treatments multiple times a week for months or potentially years. The design evokes the feeling of exploration as you enter under a tree canopy. This motif is extended into the ‘tent’ and ‘camper’ treatment rooms. With a color-changing base and curved screens the towering tree is the focal point of the virtual world where patients create an avatar and explore. The project was awarded one week before its start date and many items had lead times that would delay the schedule. The team found alternatives to preserve the design and 17-week schedule.

Wohlsen was the General Contractor for renovations of all three floors of the Greenwich American Red Cross facility. The project included construction of a brand-new blood donation center along with communication and technology upgrades and revitalized training space. The project experienced a set-back due to poor stormwater drainage issues. The team immediately managed additional scope to solve the problem which required strict coordination with the owner to ensure the new front entrance and tie-ins to new roofing systems were sufficient. Swift communication and decisive, on-site leadership by the project team proved invaluable to the overall success of the project.

87 to 85 Trumbull Street Move Project | New Haven, CT
Yale University wanted to build a new economic center where an existing early-19th century two-story structure already stood. This New Haven landmark was originally built as a residence in 1807 and then later moved to 87 Trumbull Street and rebuilt in 1871. In an effort to preserve the historic building, Yale selected Petra Construction as the General Contractor to assist with its relocation from 87 Trumbull Street to 85 Trumbull Street, approximately 500 feet down the road. A project this complex in nature required a cohesive and attentive team proficient in communication and collaboration.
