Advantage Construction, Inc. broke ground on a 20,000 s/f retail development located on Rte. 1 at 555 Boston Providence Hwy. last summer and is almost complete. This is the second project that Advantage Construction is providing construction management services on for the J.D. Murphy Company. The center is located across the street from the newly expanded Walmart store and has tremendous visibility.
