Boston – Babson College students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors and friends joined representatives from Gilbane Building Company and the community to celebrate the ribbon cutting ceremony and official opening of the new Babson Recreation and Athletics Complex (BRAC).
Gilbane provided construction management services for the 75,000sf addition and renovation that nearly doubled the footprint of Babson’s wellness center. The focal point of the new facility is the 10,000sf, two-story fitness center which features cardio and strength-training suites, as well as multipurpose rooms and a new recreation space with three basketball courts.
The BRAC project also included upgrades to varsity and recreational locker rooms, improved athletic office suites, and a new state-of-the-art sports medicine area highlighted by hot and cold hydrotherapy tubs.
