TAYLOR, one of the leading regional general contractors, was recently awarded the construction contract for University of Rochester's 45,000 s/f administrative offices on the newly created Celebration Dr. at College Town. The University occupancy will be split between two floors for designated programs at the development. TAYLOR has teamed-up with Rochester-based LaBella Associates, D.P.C. for the project on a property managed by a partnership called "CT Rochester" involving Fairmount Properties and Gilbane Development. Construction work is currently underway, with a project completion date slated for October, 2014.
"TAYLOR is excited to increase our involvement with this monumental project for the neighborhood," said TAYLOR president, Karl Schuler. "We are proud to develop our relationship with the University of Rochester, and are eager to collaborate on this project, and future projects together."
TAYLOR is already responsible for the construction of two buildings for the new mixed-use office and retail development along Mt Hope Avenue, which includes construction of a main 4-story, 220,000 s/f residential/retail building, featuring an underground parking garage, a 2-story Barnes & Noble Bookstore, restaurants and shops; and a 3-story, 70,000 s/f residential/retail building, featuring street-level shops and restaurants.
