Brookline High School Expansion Project Wins Achievement Award

BROOKLINE, MA — The Brookline High School Expansion Project has been awarded a Project Achievement Award from the New England Chapter of the Construction Management Association of America (CMAA).

The award was given to CTA Construction Managers, William Rawn Associates Architects, and Hill International at CMAA’s annual Mark H. Hasso Awards Luncheon to recognize excellence in area building projects. The Brookline High School Expansion project received a Project Achievement Award in the category for projects over $100 million.

"We were happy to be working with both William Rawn Associates Architects and Hill International," Jeff Hazelwood, principal of CTA Construction Managers, said in a statement. "The project involved an occupied renovation of 50,000 square feet of space, including extensive abatement of hazardous materials and demolition; construction of two new entrance canopies and landscape retaining walls; granite hardscape work and construction of a new patio area with tables and chairs for students.”

"The Tappan Gym and Kirrane Aquatics Center enhancements were a key element in the overall Brookline School Expansion project,” Mark Borreliz, AIA, and project architect from William Rawn Associates, said in a statement . "CTA Construction was a great partner for this occupied renovation. In addition to the school, the community relies on the Aquatics center as it is a key feature of programs and resources for area residents.”

The expansion to Brookline High School was completed in April 2022. The school now includes a brand new, 118,000-square-foot building, which spans partially over the MBTA Green Line’s Brookline Hills Station, as well as a 70,000-square-foot S.T.E.M. wing addition.
