Take A Virtual Tour – Bay Brook Elementary Middle School Opens!

Take a virtual tour! Our team recently celebrated the ribbon cutting and completion of Bay Brook Elementary Middle School in Baltimore, MD.

This replacement school was constructed on an accelerated timeline so that Baltimore City Public Schools could occupy the building after the winter break. A combination of excellent plans, team cooperation and experience, generated over $1.5 million in savings to the owner.

The new 116,000 sf, 800 student facility is designed to promote flexible and interactive learning environments. All three classroom wings, P-K through 2nd grade, 3rd through 5th grade and 6th through 8th grade, contain dedicated Collaborative Learning Areas which are centralized to make the spaces open and easily accessible. Larger core-curriculum spaces consisting of the Cafeteria/Dining, Media Center, Administration, Gymnasium, and Community Space are located on the first floor.

We would like to thank the Maryland Stadium Authority, 21st Century Schools, Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates – Architects, and everyone that contributed to this project’s success!

CAM completes Perimeter Security & Lobby Renovations at Chesapeake Employers Insurance Company

Our team completed the building security and site perimeter renovations to Chesapeake Employers’​ Insurance Company‘s building in Towson, MD.

This project incorporated the removal and replacement of all first floor glass with the installation of specialized high-grade security glazing. All parking garage security screening was replaced with anti-theft wire mesh/framing.

We also renovated the offices on the first floor and relocated the security station to a new secure vestibule, all while the building remained occupied and fully functional.
