Benchmark worked with Stephen Blatt Architects to
develop the project budget with several rounds of
pricing from design development through working drawings.
Benchmark completely renovated the administrative
area, classrooms and built a 6,500 square foot addition
including new classrooms and a platform/stage area.
Benchmark also installed all new mechanical, plumbing,
sprinkler, and electrical systems.
The steel frame and brick veneer exterior of the
new addition complements the finish of the existing
1950's building.
Benchmark has completed preliminary pricing for phase
two of the project, which will assist the owner and
architect in making informed decisions for the final
design and finish selections of the next phase of
construction. Phase two is a 15,000 square foot project
including comprehensive renovations of the existing
sanctuary and the addition of choir lofts, a library,
and a chapel.
The Temple Beth El congregation continued to use
the temple for services and special ceremonies throughout
the duration of construction. Benchmark completed
phase one of the project in May 2003.
