Salem, MA – Jones Architecture is progressing with three projects on New England college campuses including Norwich University in Vermont, and Massasoit Community College and UMass Amherst in Massachusetts.
Massasoit Community College
“The firm is fully engaged on several large-scale projects,” said Principal Rick Jones. “Each is unique but will have a significant impact on their campuses and programs.”
Norwich University’s 13,000sf Cyber Fusion Center is designed to be a versatile facility for cybersecurity, AI, and information warfare programs. It will include a security center, collaborative offices, classrooms and media labs.
Jones is also working with DCAMM and Massasoit Community College on renovating two buildings (52,000 GSF) at its Brockton campus to support science, nursing, allied health, and humanities programs. This includes renovations to the Liberal Arts and Science buildings and repurposing space in the Humanities building.
UMass Amherst’s Track & Field and Cross-Country facility
At UMass Amherst, Jones is converting the Hicks Cage Basketball Arena into an indoor practice facility for Track & Field and Cross Country, including new track surfaces and space for various athletic events. The design team is also considering updating the lobby into a lounge area with a view of the practice space.
Jones’ college work in progress extends to 12 other campuses (Boston College, Dartmouth College, Framingham State University, Harvard University, MIT, New England College of Optometry, North Shore Community College, Northeastern University, Northern Essex Community College, St. Paul’s School, UMass-Lowell, Tufts University) and includes a wide range of projects.
