The Berkshire Museum issued a Certificate of Occupancy |
28 March, 2008 - Barr & Barr was recently issued a Certificate of Occupancy for the Berkshire Museum HVAC Installation and Facility Renovations. Located in Pittsfield, MA, the Berkshire Museum is currently the only art, natural science and history museum in Western Massachusetts. Its mission is to enrich, inspire and educate through interactions with the arts, history and the natural world.
Completed renovations include the replacement of the copper roof, the new, 3,000-square foot Feigenbaum Hall of Innovation, the restoration of the fireplace and Stirling Calder fountain in the art deco Crane Room, a new visitor center, and improved circulation throughout the historic building. Most importantly, renovations included the installation of heating, ventilation, and cooling (HVAC) system throughout the facility. The climate control system not only greatly improves the comfort of our guests year-round, but will also preserve the Berkshire Museum’s collections, allows more of the collection to be displayed for the public and make possible exciting loans and exhibitions from other museums.
Congratulations to the project team; they have exemplified what a project managed by Barr & Barr represents to the owner and community.
