Waltham, MA Callahan Construction Managers received the Merit Award from The Massachusetts Chapter of Associated Builders (ABC) at the 27th annual Excellence in Construction Awards for their outstanding work on AVA Northpoint.
Over 250 ABC members gathered at the Westin Waltham Hotel to recognize and celebrate the very best construction projects all member companies have to offer. This year’s applicant pool was particularly competitive, with each winner selected for the high standards of craftsmanship, safety and quality delivered by talented merit shop workers using the efficient merit shop approach of union and open shop firms working side-by-side, free of interference, providing on-time, on-budget construction with safety, quality and cost effectiveness.
“We are proud to recognize the outstanding work of our member contractors through the ABC Excellence in Construction Awards. The winning contractors maintained a constant focus on meeting their clients’ needs and set a high bar for craftsmanship, quality and safety,” said ABC MA president Greg Beeman.
The Merit Award recognizes the overall excellence in project execution, craftsmanship, safety, innovative elements and challenges, and client satisfaction. Callahan took home the Merit Award, representing work that stands above the rest, for its work on the new LEED Silver Certified, AVA Northpoint multifamily complex in Cambridge, Mass., boasting 265 units, an environmentally-friendly, saline swimming pool, pet spa, garage parking, courtyard space with grills and lounge seating, bike workshop and more.
