Continuing their twelve year relationship, Summit Land Development, hired JB Sullivan Construction Corp. of Bedford, N.H. for the design build construction of the shell of the new 108,000 s/f Indian Brook Medical Office Building at 10 Members Way. The structure, which was developed for Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, was constructed in a nine month time frame. The five-story, brick veneer, EIFS clad structure with suspended canopied front entrance was designed by Berard-Martel Architects of Bedford. T.F.

The completely handicap accessible building features four floors of office space, each with 21,580 s/f of space, an underground parking garage, two four-stop elevators, and parking for 490 vehicles. Led by project manager Kevin Morse and site supervisor Kevin Weyant, the Sullivan team, under very adverse winter and spring weather conditions, was responsible for the following scope of work for this year long project: *Preliminary site demolition/clean up, * building construction, * utility and HVAC installation, * site work that included construction of retaining walls, * parking lots, * sidewalks, and * landscaping. The entire building will be leased by Wentworth-Douglass Hospital. With the completion of the shell, the Sullivan team has won the Wentworth-Douglass contract to be responsible for the building's tenant improvements that will include interior architectural millwork, residential cabinetry, flooring, painting and wall coverings, window treatments, and fire protection specialties. Some of the future occupants of the facility include Strafford Medical Associates, Wentworth Internal Medicine, Dover Family Practice and Atlantic/ACMED.
