curley community center
Building Envelope Technologies, Inc. is proud to announce that we were presented with the 2025 Preservation Achievement Award from Boston Preservation Alliance, for our involvement in the restoration of the Curley Community Center 🏆
The Curley Community Center, constructed in 1932 as the L-Street Bath House under Mayor James Michael Curley’s administration, has long been a cornerstone of community life in South Boston.
What began as an interior renovation expanded into a comprehensive climate resilience initiative, incorporating exterior restoration and structural modifications. The design team, in collaboration with local and state agencies, implemented solutions like relocating critical systems to upper floors, reinforcing the building envelope, and integrating bioswales and native landscaping for stormwater management.
BET is regularly charged with the care of significant properties for institutions of note. Our work with historical properties has been recognized with awards over 16 times in the last decade by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the cities of Boston and Cambridge.
Congratulations to all involved in this beautiful restoration!
