South Coast Improvement begins Benchmark Senior Living at Nashua

Nashua, NH South Coast Improvement Company, a design-build general contractor, began a new build, out-of-ground construction project at Benchmark Senior Living at Nashua Crossings, at 674 West Hollis St.

South Coast Improvement Co. began the $4 million construction of a two-story addition in November 2021 and will complete work in fall 2022.

“Benchmark is a repeat client of ours for whom we’ve done renovation work at other Benchmark facilities,” said Henry Quinlan, president of South Coast Improvement. “While occupied space renovations at senior livings is our specialty, we’re excited to show our capabilities on this new construction, out-of-ground project—as always, with minimal disruption to Benchmark’s daily operations.”

The new, two-story addition will feature 14 units, associated common space and a basement. The project includes: 12 one- and two-bedroom suites (one unit designed for the hearing-impaired); connecting new addition to existing building; a new bistro and bistro bar; new activity room; new mechanical-electrical-plumbing (including ERV units), and exterior work and additions, including landscaping and fire pit on a new brick patio.

Benchmark Senior Living at Nashua Crossings is an assisted living community that also offers mind and memory care, as well as respite care.
