Scope Of Work
ACC was the general contractor for the final phase three of the historical renovation of the Rhode Island Veterans Memorial Auditorium. This renovation project was broken into two distinct phases. The first phase involved the renovations to the Office Tower and Administrative Offices and included construction of a new elevator shaft and various site improvements. The second phase of this project included renovations and refurbishment of the Auditorium, Lobbies and Vestibules which began in late June after The Vets season ended for the summer.
Before the restoration of the Auditorium could begin, the entire seating and stage area had to be protected. After that was accomplished, a complex scaffolding system was erected so that the ceiling artwork restoration work could begin. The painters/artists in many areas were laying on their backs to painstakingly restore the ceiling artwork to bring it back to the brilliance when first commissioned. The entire project was completed in time for The Vets 2014 Fall Season.
