Client: Turner Construction and Boston Properties

Value: $1M - $5M
Location: Boston, MA

JDC was contracted to perform all of the structural demolition of the existing multi-level plaza at the Prudential Center on Boylston Street in downtown Boston. The challenge associated with this project included removal of heavily re-enforced concrete parking deck flanked on all sides by an active shopping mall/food court to the east and south, a convention center to the west and Boylston Street to the north. The demolition crews worked extended hours and weekends to bulk load over 1,600 tons of ACM-coated concrete that were discovered in waterproofing at the large planter structures that were located in the middle of the plaza.
