O&G Awarded Contract to Build Athletic Facilities at Washington Montessori School

  • 07/07/15

Washington, Conn. – O&G Industries has recently been awarded a contract to design and build a soccer field and tennis courts at the Washington Montessori School in Washington, Connecticut.

Sitework on the design/build project began in mid-June. The project includes extensive sitework and excavation to make way for a soccer field and four tennis courts behind the existing school.  In total, 14,000 cubic yards of earth will need to be excavated as a part of the project.

In addition, the project will feature a four tennis court post-tensioned concrete system. The post tensioned concrete will be covered with a cushioned playing surface that will extend the life of the court, reduce maintenance and provide a superior playing surface.

O&G has completed over 230 school construction projects to date, more than any other Connecticut based contractor.  O&G is actively working on thirteen school construction projects including Miss Porter’s School in Farmington, the CREC Academy of Aerospace in Windsor and Naugatuck High School.  “At O&G, we’re proud of our Connecticut roots and being the contractor of choice for public and private school construction projects” stated O&G Assistance Vice President Jason Travelstead.

The project is expected to be completed in October of 2015.

  • Architectural Power for the Modern Campus Landscape

    For generations, an outdoor classroom only required a textbook and a patch of grass. Today, not only has the laptop replaced the printed pages, the rise of agile learning has turned campuses into study halls with students listening to lectures and researching topics from quads, gardens, and plazas. The challenge for architects and facility managers is to provide connectivity without cluttering the landscape with visual eyesores or creating safety hazards with extension cords.
