Integrated Builders Completes Construction of New Senior Center

ROCKLAND, Mass. — Integrated Builders has completed construction on the new Cohasset Senior Center on behalf of The Social Service League of Cohasset. Located at 91 Sohier St., the $3.7-million, 11,340-square-foot center was funded entirely through a private-public partnership and offers a multitude of programs and activities for the local senior community.

Integrated Builders Superintendent John Grace worked alongside architects Bargmann Hendrie + Archetype, Inc. and The Social Service League of Cohasset throughout the development.

“The new Cohasset Senior Center provides much needed and dedicated gathering space for the local elderly population in a centralized location,” commented Jay Dacey, president of Integrated Builders. “With several multi-purpose rooms, a spacious lounge and multiple offices for various senior organizations, the center offers something for everyone. We are thrilled to have developed a facility to accommodate this active generation who play such an important role in the fabric of the community.”

Having been built from the ground up, the development includes a two-story, colonial-style building on the west side that leads into a one-story building on the east end. The Cohasset Senior Center consists of a large, multi-purpose function room, billiards room, second floor office space for Elder Affairs and a lounge for programming and social hours. Additionally, the building includes a kitchen, pantry and dining area designed to host cooking classes. Conveniently contained under a single roof, Cohasset seniors can now easily access a variety of services with minimal transportation burdens.

“Our elderly community represents one of the fastest growing populations in the town of Cohasset, a demographic that will benefit greatly from the construction of our new senior center,” said Marita Carpenter, president of The Social Service League of Cohasset. “Integrated Builders worked closely with us to ensure that our needs were met to ultimately provide a convenient, inclusive and accommodating facility that will offer opportunities for enjoyment and activity for years to come.”
