Delivering a 40,000 SF laboratory and academic building just 11 months after the beginning of design may seem like an impossibility, but that is exactly what happened when Nickerson & O’Day took on the Robert D. O’Donnell Commons building project at Husson College. This new home for the School of Health, School of Education and Student Services office provides the college with several multi-use large classrooms, a 100-seat lecture hall, seminar rooms, faculty offices and a human anatomy and dissection lab.
Not only did Nickerson & O’Day finish on time, but we also accelerated the schedule to finish two weeks early to accommodate Husson’s request. All of this was done while beating the budget by 4.5% and returning significant cost savings to the project owner.
“…on time and well under budget with a product we are extremely pleased with.”
-Bill Beardsley, previous President of Husson College – O’Donnell Commons located in Bangor, Maine
