Erland Const. awarded by ABC-Mass. for Pike School and Waverly Woods projects

Erland Construction, Inc. has earned three Associated Builders and Contractors of Massachusetts' Excellence in Construction Awards. ABC honored the new Dahod Center for Community and Creative Learning at The Pike School with an Eagle Award. The 36,000 s/f creative learning center includes a new 280-seat theater with high-end finishes, like book matched interior wood, and serves as a connector to two existing buildings on campus. The project also included extensive renovations to classroom space and the existing arts center. Waverley Woods, a new 40-unit, affordable housing complex in Belmont won both a Merit Award and a Building Green Award from ABC. The development features 40 garden and townhouse-style apartment units in six buildings. Because of its sustainable design, Waverley Woods features a light color concrete drive isle, recycled-material for play surface, dual flush toilets, compact fluorescent bulbs, programmable thermostats for energy efficiency, rain barrels for irrigation, drip irrigation system, and drought-tolerant plantings.
