Abbot Building Restoration renovates facade of converted Cambridge apartment buildings

Abbot Building Restoration has completed a major masonry renovation project on the exterior of two adjacent brick apartment buildings at 124 and 126 Rindge Ave. Formerly used for parochial educational purposes, the 2-story buildings had been vacated for several years until their subsequent conversion to residential apartments. Under the direction of general contractor, Delphi Construction, Abbot was contracted to modify multiple window and door openings to complement the interior layout of apartments according to the plans and specifications of the overall renovation. The scope of Abbot's work included cleaning of the brick, repointing of the brick joints, and caulking the windows and doors after installation. Significantly, Abbot had new pre-cast stones fabricated to match the original stones in color and texture, and researched and located a new brick that matched the original brick. Abbot provides a broad range of masonry construction services to public, institutional, and commercial clients, including condominiums, property management entities, and private residences. The firm also acts as a general contractor for a variety of masonry building construction projects.
