JDC Demolition was contracted by Suffolk to perform the complete demolition of a former Huntington Theater to make way for a new 34 story residential tower on Huntington Avenue directly across the street from Boston’s Symphony Hall. JDC’s scope of work included asbestos abatement, PCB remediation, hazardous building materials removal, and complete demolition of the 30,000 SF multi-story structure. Logistical challenges to this project included working adjacent to an existing renovation project to an abutting theater which made trucking and equipment access difficult. Other challenges included having to separate the structure from two existing building on opposite ends of the building which remained active during the entire process.
