(Salem, MA) Jewett Construction, a design-build construction management firm based in Raymond, NH, has completed a significant 24,000-square-foot historic restoration and three-story addition at 90 Washington Street in the heart of historic Salem, Massachusetts. The transformation involved the careful repair and modernization of a historic building, which now serves as a new annex for the City of Salem’s municipal offices.

The newly renovated facility features open concept office space on the second and third floors, offering a modern and collaborative work environment. On the ground level, a public meeting space has been incorporated to serve the community’s needs. A stunning curtain wall element in the new addition provides a visual focal point that merges sleek modern aesthetics with the architectural heritage of Salem.

The building was designed by Mark Meche of Winter Street Architects, a Salem-based architecture firm known for thoughtful and contextually sensitive designs. Craig Jewett, President of Jewett Construction, praised the collaboration, saying, “Mark and his team did a fantastic job designing a truly beautiful and modern space. We were fortunate to work with him on this project.”

The project has received enthusiastic feedback from both city officials and the community. As a result, the partnership between Jewett Construction and Winter Street Architects is being encouraged to submit the project for several prestigious architectural and building awards.
