After two years of planning and a
city-wide vote to locate the new headquarters building downtown,
Nickerson & O'Day won an open-bid process against six other
contractors and began driving steel H-piles into the
structurally incompetent soils beneath the building in the fall
of 2005. With the
critical path being the new, three-story building Nickerson &
O'Day focused its efforts there starting the project as winter
closed in, the poor subsurface soil conditions and virtually no
"lay-down"/storage area were all challenges that Nickerson &
O'Day met and solved.
At the Owner's request, the
dispatch office was relocated into the building one month early
and overall the project was completed on-time and under budget
giving Bangor its new, state-of-the-art facility.
It incorporates a full-service
evidence storage/lab facility, a five lane indoor firing range,
workout/locker room, storage bays for five police vehicles,
dispatch office, administrative offices, detention/questioning
facilities, detective offices and even a police museum to
celebrate Bangor's colorful law enforcement history. |
