To renovate the "Cumberland Cold Storage Building", an existing 5-story brick structure to allow for the reuse of the upper floors for office use for the law firm, Pierce Atwood, and to reconfigure existing parking.
Provided civil & site engineering plans, regulatory permitting, stormwater management report, construction documents/administration; Blais Civil Engineers (BCE) was retained to provide civil and site engineering services in preparation for a site plan application.
This project has significantly improved this well-known building along the waterfront and has added considerable activity and interest to this part of Commercial Street without impacting future marine uses on the ground floor. Formerly used for canning molasses in the mid 1800s, the law firm Pierce Atwood currently occupies the upper four floors.
