Center for Nursing Innovation Construction Project Update

Beginning on Wednesday, April 13, we will begin the demolition phase of the Center for Nursing Innovation construction project located on the 3rd floor of Mercy Hall. Our construction partners at Allied Cook Construction have coordinated with the Town of Standish, the MDEP and the demolition contractors to begin work. It’s important to note that all necessary permitting, applications and notices have been filed and approved by the State of Maine Fire Marshal’s office, giving us the approval to proceed. This phase is just the start of this project which will continue until completion during the spring of 2023.

As part of the management of this construction project, weekly meetings have been scheduled to monitor the progress as well as managing the day to day performance of the construction team. As such, regular updates will be shared with the community as important construction milestones are achieved.

To ensure the safety of staff, faculty, students and our community members, we have asked Campus Safety to play a large role in managing the access to the 3rd floor during the construction project. In order to keep everyone safe, we will restrict all non construction activity and access to the 3rd floor of Mercy hall for the duration of the project.

The facilities management team, and the design build team are extremely excited to see this project move from the planning phase to the construction phase. The next few months will prove to be very busy as well as exciting.

Please contact facilities management if you have any questions or concerns.
