Integrated Builders, a construction management, design-build and general contracting firm, has reached the mid-construction point of the first phase of the retail and office development of The Shops at Quonset Point.
As part of an $80 million master development plan, The Shops at Quonset Point is being developed by New Boston Fund. The first phase of the project consists of 200,000 s/f of space that includes 160,000 s/f of retail and 40,000 s/f of office space.
Integrated Builders is working on the completion of the 75,000 s/f outside air center, which includes a shell for a 25,000 s/f Dave's grocery store.
The entire development, when completed, is expected to have a limited service hotel, a visitor's center, local grocer, drug store, coffee shop, restaurants, a bank, small shops, and two anchor stores. The design incorporates innovative sustainable elements such as use of recycled materials, and other sustainable green strategies.
"The project started in spring this year and is scheduled to be completed in spring 2009," said Jay Dacey, president of Integrated Builders. "We're very pleased to be working for this exciting project that is being developed by one of the country's top real estate investment and development firms. We're looking forward to completing this project on time."
