The Edifice Paris team recently shared their view of Notre Dame as they headed to our jobsite for the evening. As construction professionals and citizens of the world, we are excited to see the progress of reconstruction efforts following the tragic fire in 2019 that nearly destroyed this historic landmark. Meanwhile, our work at the U.S. Embassy in Paris is well underway with our crew working nights and on weekends to successfully complete renovations inside occupied spaces with minimal disruption to the staff, visitors and on-going operations.
Getting to know the local city is an important part of OCONUS project mobilization. Thanks to the Edifice team in Paris for sharing some great pictures from their walk-about!
We are excited to announce that our OCONUS Team kicks off a new project in Paris, France this month. Paris nous voila!
Edifice has kicked off two new projects! The Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare Facility, Naval Support Facility in Dahlgren, VA is a single-story 7,000 SF facility to provide secure technical support and laboratory spaces within the West Complex of the Naval Support Facility. To support the requirement for this Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF), the new building will be constructed of reinforced masonry walls within a controlled perimeter and Anti-Terrorism/Force-Protection (AT/FP) compliant exterior doors and aluminum curtain-wall system.
We have also begun work in Maryland on a replacement for the existing Firing Range and administration buildings located southeast of the JBA Airfield, providing new, larger facilities that are fully compliant with the latest safety and security standards.
We thank NAVFAC for this opportunity to deliver Specialty Design+Build Mission Support!
