Project: WeGrow
JC Elite acted as Construction Manager in the WeGrow Expansion project, located in the original WeWork headquarters in Chelsea, New York. The WeGrow school expansion pioneers in disturbing the standard aesthetics seen in today’s public school system. Designed by award winning architects, Bjarke Ingels Group, WeGrow is striving to create a revolutionary learning environment for children.
The 20,000 square foot spaces encompasses large scale precision millwork, curved glass and feature pieces throughout that demand a high level of coordination and involvement with designers we always strive to achieve.
Demolition was started during the school year on the vacant adjacent office space. Once the school year was over the two spaces were integrated. We take great pride I’m ensuring the safety well being adjacent tenants, landlords and this case children. Implementing noise and dust mitigation, we were able to leave the school undisturbed even as made deliveries through school grounds at night.
A challenging project executed successfully and the reward was seeing a school year get off on the right foot.
