Chapman Construction/Design opens New Hampshire office

Manchester, NH Chapman Construction/Design has opened a new office at 8025 South Willow St. The new location, which will serve Chapman’s northern market partners and clients, will be managed by senior vice president John Ferreira, a 25-year Chapman veteran. Ferreira has managed some of Chapman’s top clients – including Boston University, Raytheon, and Nuance Communications – and he’ll apply his construction experience and acumen to grow Chapman’s northern market portfolio.

With more than a quarter of Chapman’s staff already residing north of Lowell, Manchester was a natural choice for the company’s second office. Until now, all of Chapman’s northern work has managed from the firm’s Newton, Mass. headquarters.

“We are excited about the opening of our new office and warehouse, which will allow us to serve our northern projects more easily and efficiently,” said Ferreira. “We are committed to bringing Chapman’s high standards, culture, and ‘Exceed Expectations’ philosophy to New Hampshire, while strengthening existing relationships and developing new partnerships.”

Chapman Construction/Design has completed many projects in New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts for clients including Dell Inc, Velcro Companies, HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital, The CrossPoint Towers, Edgewood Retirement Community and Converse. Chapman is currently working on the renovation of the Manchester manufacturing facilities for Velcro Companies which includes new office space and mechanical systems.

New England’s notorious weather – from fierce winter storms to summer squalls and fall hurricanes – can leave businesses in the dark. While power outages are often blamed on storms, they can also be caused by unforeseen events like accidents or construction mishaps.
