Select Demo was contracted directly by DPR to perform the interior demolition of this 3-story, 200,000 SF commercial building (Bldg. 50), as well as the interior demolition and asbestos abatement of a 2-story L-shaped building (Bldg. 60). A large mechanical space was completely demolished in Bldg. 60, along with loading dock and building entryways. The 2-level connector between Bldg. 50 and 60 was al-so completely demolished. Select’s abatement scope included the removal of 100,000 SF of asbestos flooring, asbestos facade removal and the removal of hazmat throughout building. The scope also included the takedown of a 1-story 5,000 SF building.
I found the details about the Waltham property fascinating, especially how spaces like these are being reimagined for modern needs. Flexible environments that can adapt to different types of work or collaboration really stand out to me. It shows how much value there is in combining functionality with long-term vision. That’s one of the reasons I’m interested in how companies like JD Young Technologies approach workplace solutions. By focusing on efficiency, innovation, and adaptability, they help businesses make the most of their spaces while staying prepared for future demands. It’s all about building smarter, sustainable work environments.
