Cambridge, MA – CTA Construction Managers announced that it recently completed the 12th of 36 phases on the Newtowne Court renovation project, that includes updates to eight buildings and 268 affordable housing units in Cambridge.

Improvements will also be made to the bathrooms and kitchens, including new finishes and fixtures, appliances, countertops, and cabinet doors.
