South Coast Improvement Co. completes deck for Shady Hill School
Nautical themed deck at Shady Hill School - Cambridge, MACambridge, MA South Coast Improvement Co. (SCIC) completed work with first-time client, Shady Hill Schools. The school serves pre-K through 8th grade students on an 11 acre campus, which integrates some of the best programs in the industry with a resourceful setting that optimizes the social, physical, emotional and mental development of the children.
Shady Hill School was born on the back porch of a home owned by Ernest and Agnes Hocking in 1915. By 1925 the number of students had grown, new space housed the school, and it gained its official name. Today, the campus has 18 buildings and the school is looking to continue development with an extensive construction plan geared toward greater integration and innovation amongst their educational community of staff and students.
SCIC constructed a fast-track addition for the school, creating a nautical themed deck shaped like a ship, complete with a mast. The project began with excavation and required skillful carpentry work. The shape and design aspects required expert work from the framing process through the extent of the build. The life-like ship bow provides the perfect take off for imaginative play, and is built to last.
The project cost just over $200,000 and was ready in time for the students to enjoy at the start of this new school year. As experts in occupied space renovations recognized professionals in the education sector, SCIC hopes to be part of more projects for this school as they chip away at their long-term construction plan.
