The Langham's reception

Jones Lang LaSalle has recently completed The Langham, Boston's new Chuan Body + Soul health club and pool renovations. The complex, high end $2.5 million interior construction project features two fitness floors and signature treatment suites. Senior vice president Harry Dangora served as project executive. Don Dignan was the senior construction manager, vice president Daniel Donahue served as senior superintendent, and Christopher Hardiman was the estimator on the assignment.
Facing infrastructure and scheduling challenges, Jones Lang LaSalle worked closely with The Langham, Boston and the entire project team to deliver a modern wellness center featuring: a complete replacement of the indoor lap pool liner, two new massage therapy suites, a Jacuzzi, two new saunas, cardio and weight equipment with TechnoGym equipment with TV and iPod technology, a rejuvenation bar, interconnecting stairwell, elegant santos mahogany wood flooring, new stone flooring and wall tile imported from Italy, walnut paneling, elongated multi-colored glass, a granite reception desk, and complete HVAC upgrades.
Hotel manager Stephanie Mehail and director of engineering Ralph Rose, both from The Langham, Boston, also collaborated on the project. The project manager was Gifford Perry of Koningisor, Luciano and Associates, Inc. The director of Chuan Body +Soul is Shane Elder.
According to Jones Lang LaSalle's Dangora, "This was a collaborative effort from the start. We encountered a few surprises including existing plumbing that required rerouting. Our team worked together to minimize the impact on ongoing hotel operations, and deliver a new Chuan Body + Soul with a variety of health and fitness offerings consistent with their high standards."

Architectural and interior design services were provided by the TRO JunglBrannen team of Mart Ojamaa, Melisa Marcotte, Michael O'Connell and Erin Gould. The mechanical/electrical engineering was provided by RG Vanderweil Engineers, the lighting design by D Schweppe, and the structural engineering by Boston Building Consultants.
