Northeast Area Elementary School – Ridge Road
CAM Construction was hired by GWWO Architects to provide cost estimating services for the new construction of the Northeast Area Elementary School on Ridge Road. CAM submitted a DD estimate with a divisional line item breakdown, a complete 75% CD estimate with a detailed line item breakdown, provided alternative construction costs and systems, value engineering ideas, and reviewed documents for the coordination of trades and constructability.
Art House
CAM Construction completed cost estimating services for the new construction of a mixed-use development in the Station North Art District in Baltimore, MD. The development would consist of 5 wood-framed levels with 160 affordable housing units, above a concrete podium containing residential amenity space, ~13,000SF of commercial/retail space, and covered parking on the ground level. This project will utilize 4% and 9% LIHTC credits in a single building “twin” financing structure, in addition to various sources of city and state DHCD funding.
Maryland Food Bank – Foodworks Addition
CAM completed 21,000 sqft of interior expansions and additions at the Food Bank’s 100k sqft headquarters facility in Halethorpe, MD, which remained fully functional over the course of construction, to avoid any interruption in service to those in need. This project improves Food Bank’s distribution capacity, provides educational opportunities to certify new chefs and kitchen managers from low income communities, and greatly enhances the administrative office environment needed so their nearly 200 hardworking staff members can better carry out their mission. Our scope of the work included a substantial Kitchen Expansion and Renovation, building a new Loading and Receiving Queue, Dry Storage Area, state-of-the-art Conference Rooms, Private Offices, and Collaboration Areas, a new Break Room & Training Area, and a New Celebrated Entry to the sorting warehouse for volunteers and employees. This project was extremely challenging given the need to establish a temporary kitchen, insert completely sound-proof mezzanine structures within an occupied facility, interface additions with a pre-engineered building, and keep the Food Bank completely operational over the course of construction, given the mission-critical work that they carry out on a daily basis.
