Newly Installed Prefabricated Cottages Used as Low-Threshold Transitional Housing

Gilbane Building Company provided construction management services for the installation and occupancy of 20 prefabricated cottages manufactured by Pallet Shelters and procured through DCAMM and the Executive Office of Health and Human Services.

The scope of work included all site preparation and utilities work, concrete foundations, permanent electrical, plumbing, and fire alarm systems, as well as hardscape and paving, landscaping, painting, and miscellaneous site furnishings.

The erection of this low-threshold transitional housing on the campus of the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital in Jamaica Plain provides shelter and support services for individuals struggling with homelessness.

The Shattuck Hospital Cottages were completed in March of this year.
