Bridgeport, CT – Viking Construction has received an Excellence in Construction Award from the Associated Builders and Contractors of Connecticut for work as general contractor on the $60 million Crescent Crossing residential project in Bridgeport, built on the site of Connecticut’s first public housing complex.
(l-r) Angel Ramirez, Craig Benak, and Michael Avallon accepted the award.
Viking redeveloped the 3.5-acre site, which, originally built in 1943 as Yellow Mill Village, once housed Father Panik Village.
The 177 one-, two-, and three-bedroom energy-efficient units have designer interiors, stylish veneer brick, and hardy board exteriors. Common areas include landscaped grounds and a clock tower overlooking a corner entrance.
Viking received the honor at the CT-ABC’s annual Excellence in Construction award event held Oct. 25 at the Aqua Turf.
The competition is judged by an independent panel of architects, engineers, and university professionals who evaluate the quality and client satisfaction of each project. Judges also pay particular attention to the rigorous safety standards of each contractor.
