North Branch Construction celebrates Southern N.H. University Tuckerman Hall project team

North Branch Construction celebrated its team members who are participating in the construction of the new Southern New Hampshire University Tuckerman Hall with a subcontractor appreciation barbeque. The event was a small reward for the great effort and hard work that has been put forth by all subcontractors, as well as the engineers and architects, and North Branch's own team of carpenters. In addition to lunch, North Branch provided everyone with Tuckerman Hall project team t-shirts in safety green. North Branch plans to complete the four-story Tuckerman Hall residence building in August. It will serve as a co-ed dormitory with over 300 beds located behind the Hampton and Windsor dormitories at the end of East Side Dr. JSA, Inc. is providing architectural services for this project.
