Burlington, Ma – Erland Construction recently completed the fourth phase of dormitory improvements at Westfield State University for the Massachusetts State College Building Authority. Starting in 2007, Erland and architect Prellwitz Chilinski Associates (PCA, Inc) of Cambridge have performed a series of renovations to three dormitories at Westfield State University to revitalize housing on campus.
For this fourth “summer slammer” project, Erland completed the bathroom renovations to Scanlon Hall that were begun last summer – including adding new toilets, sinks, and showers, as well as making all bathrooms ADA-compliant. In addition, Erland renovated Scanlon’s common spaces on the lower level and first floor to include new Residential Life Services Offices, a Health Services Department, a game room, and a laundry room. Scanlon’s exterior was also upgraded to create handicap accessibility at building entrances.
The three previous summer slammers encompassed additional renovations and upgrades to Scanlon Hall, as well as work in Courtney Hall (a student residence) and Dickinson Commons (an extension of Dickinson Hall that serves as a student activities and lounge area).
