Louis A. Bencardino, owner of Bencardino Excavating located in Bensalem, Pa., and his team of excavators recently began project work at the Settlement Music School’s new Willow Grove Branch facility at 318 Davisville Road.
Settlement Music School is the largest community school of the arts in the U.S. and has served more than 300,000 students since 1908. General contractor, TN Ward, Inc., hired Lou Bencardino and his excavating team to handle the installation of a segment block retaining wall; to import 5,000 yards of fill to build up the site; and to work on all curbs and final paving for the school.
Louis Bencardino and Bencardino Excavating will lay the ground work for the new 25,000 sq. ft, three-story facility which will replace the Jenkintown Branch and will allow enrollment to grow from 800 to 1,500 by 2012.
