Suffolk Construction Awarded Miami Dade College Classroom/ Student Union Facility Project
MIAMI - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Suffolk Construction Company, Inc., recently announced it was awarded
the Miami Dade College Wolfson Campus Classroom/Student Union facility
project. The new $25 million Classroom/Student Union facility will
provide an additional 110,000 gross square feet of new academic and
support space to the institution's Wolfson Campus. The SIX-story
facility will include classrooms, FILM archival library, wellness
center, student union/student life center, and a food court and general
eating area.
The Suffolk project team will provide a comprehensive logistics plan
that will help limit disruption to the campus and the city's ongoing
activities and transportation system. The Miami Dade College campus is
located in a congested, urban area with heavy pedestrian and vehicular
traffic patterns, and the east property line is bordered by the Metro
Mover.
The complicated building construction project will be an opportunity for
Suffolk to begin building a strong relationship with Miami Dade College,
and strengthen its design-build relationship with Zyscovich, the
architect on the project. Construction is scheduled to begin in December
of 2010 and will be completed in December 2011.
