Jeremiah E. Burke High School and Library

OVERVIEW

To provide a sense of community in this urban neighborhood, the City of Boston decided to renovate the Jeremiah E. Burke High School and add a new 80,000 square foot, four-story addition that provided Dorchester with an updated school and a combined high school / public library. The new wing also houses a community center, cafeteria, and gymnasium. W.T. Rich served as the General Contractor for this project.
