Follow on Google News | Acella Construction Corporation Completes Work for Zoo New EnglandProject includes improvements to both Stone Zoo, Franklin Park Zoo
By: Acella Construction Corporation Acella was contracted by Zoo New England to add and renovate multiple exhibits. Work at Stone Zoo in Stoneham included updating the Mammal House and Duck Pond to better meet new standards. A 20’ glass barrier was installed, allowing the animals to stay on exhibit well into the fall season and earlier in the spring. Additionally, 14 exhibits were updated with new lighting, plumbing, roofing and HVAC distribution systems. At the Franklin Park Zoo in Boston, project work included renovation of the existing Bird World and Lion Enclosure. The scope of work involved raising the containment area and adding more mesh around the enclosures to meet the guidelines defined by the American Zoological Association. Site work on the project was led by Acella Senior Project Manager Saul Schrader. The work was slightly more challenging due to the difficulty in setting up staging equipment for the two-story exhibits. “We were happy to partner with Zoo New England on these projects, as they provide such rich cultural experiences for so many in our community,” said Dave Dirubbo, president of Acella Construction. “Despite the challenging circumstances presented by the terrain, we enjoyed the opportunities provided by this new work environment.” About Acella Construction Corporation Founded in 2003, Acella Construction is a construction management firm specializing in full service turn-key construction, design-build and pre-construction services for the commercial, institutional and educational sectors.
