The two national construction reporting services reported unsurprising data on starts in February this week. With slightly more weather disruption than in January, February was a difficult month for construction. Both Reed Construction Data and McGraw-Hill reported construction down 3% from January and from February 2013.
Locally, Massaro Corp. succeeded in landing a pair of projects that had been requesting proposals a week or so ago. Carlow chose Massaro for its $11.8 million expansion and UPMC awarded the company the enabling work at the old Children’s Hospital/Presbyterian Hospital site. Massaro and PJ Dick are the finalists for the deconstruction of the remaining piece of Children’s.
Massaro Design Build has been awarded the enabling work for the demolition of the old Children’s Hospital/Presbyterian Hospital site. Massaro Corporation, along with P.J. Dick, have been short listed for the deconstruction of the old Children’s Hospital. Brian Conroy – UPMC Facilities Development
