Roxbury, MA – Colantonio, Inc. is well into its $3.3 million, 32,000sf renovation of the John A. Shelburne Community Center.

Designed by Bargmann Hendrie + Archetype, Inc., the project calls for all new energy efficient heating, air conditioning and electrical equipment. All plumbing fixtures are being removed and replaced with ADA compliant fixtures.

New flooring, ceramic file, acoustical ceilings, and aluminum storefronts are being installed, in addition to a fire protection system. The hydraulic elevator is also being modernized.

The work is being phased to allow the Community Center to continue its operations.

The after-school programs and basketball leagues will be held during the winter months. Once the basketball leagues complete their season, the renovation in the gym will start. The areas completed in the first phase will then house the after-school program.

Completion of the project is scheduled for July, 2011.
