Technical College System of Georgia Hires Parrish Construction Group for $4 Million Renovation to A

Online, October 18, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) has partnered with Parrish Construction Group for renovations to buildings on the Atlanta Technical College (ATC) campus.

Parrish Construction Group of Perry and Alpharetta, GA specializes in constructing academic facilities throughout Georgia, and the ATC project was the perfect fit for the 16-year-old firm. TCSG hired the design build team Parrish Construction and NBP Engineers to renovate the existing HVAC Systems in three buildings that had problems with temperature and humidity control. The existing facilities encompass approximately 320,000 square feet of instructional, classroom, vocational lab and office space. The facilities are served by varying existing HVAC systems that have been altered over time to respond to the changing needs of the educational programs.

"We're excited to be working with TCSG and ATC," said Parrish Construction Group President and Founder Dave Cyr. "ATC is a great institution and we're happy to help them upgrade their facilities to meet the growing needs of incoming students. We know that on campuses especially, it is critical to renovate facilities while classes continue to operate safely and we're glad to take that responsibility."

Parrish Construction Group will provide a reliable HVAC system designed and constructed to operate under a wide range of weather, occupancy and building use conditions to continually provide the optimum learning and teaching environment for students and faculty.

"This project comes at a great time, considering the job market crisis in America." Cyr said. "This HVAC renovation project is in the range of $4 million with soft costs to be determined. Parrish Construction Group is happy to keep our employees working, even through this tough economy."
