White River Junction, VT – Jewett Construction, headquartered in Raymond, N.H., hosted a beam-raising ceremony recently to commemorate the construction of a new 69-unit residential building on South Main Street in White River Junction.
The 43,600sf mixed retail and residential building, designed by Studio Nexus Architects + Planners and built by Jewett Construction, was inspired by the nearby Gates-Briggs Building, the Village at White River Junction, and the architecture of Railroad Row. The studio units will feature modern brick and gray details with large windows and balconies overlooking the street.
Community members and the construction team had a chance to sign the beam before it was placed in the corner of the building project.
“It’s wonderful what we’re doing here right now,” said Jewett project manager, Travis Parker. “This project is going to continue to bring life into the downtown district and Jewett Construction is thrilled to be a part of it.”
The project is set to be completed by mid-2021.
Jewett Construction’s vice president of operations, Myles Cambridge, addresses the crowd.
