WASHINGTON, D.C. – Consigli Construction Co., Inc. and its work on the Lillian and Albert Small Capital Jewish Museum were recently featured in the July edition of the International Association of Museum Facility Administrators’ (IAMFA) member magazine, Papyrus.

Members of the project team, Naomi Doddington and Jack Trainor, collaborated with architect SmithGroup to co-author an article that highlighted Consigli’s meticulous historic preservation work and extensive adaptive reuse that transformed one of Washington, D.C.’s oldest synagogues into a new, from-the-ground-up museum.

“This was a challenge, not only in terms of restoration but also in relation to the addition of structural systems and the creation of the water-tight environment needed for incorporation with the Museum. Careful restoration efforts ensured the synagogue could achieve appropriate museum standards, making it possible to create exhibition space on the first floor of this historic structure, and an engaging audiovisual exhibition on the second floor.”

WASHINGTON, DC – Two Consigli Construction Co., Inc. projects were recently honored by the DC Preservation League at its 20th Annual Awards for Excellence in Historic Preservation. Meridian Hill Park and the Washington, DC Metropolitan Police Memorial were recognized for their meticulous restoration work completed by Consigli’s team, including the preservation and installation of exposed aggregate concrete pioneered by artisan John J. Earley.

The lower plaza level of the historic Meridian Hill Park, a National Park Service site in downtown Washington known locally as Malcolm X Park, required extensive restoration efforts. The project included construction of a new accessible route through the lower plaza level to provide barrier-free entry, rehabilitation of the designed landscape, improved drainage and detailed restoration work of the park’s historic features, including installing 13,000 square feet of exposed aggregate to match the original work of J.J. Earley.

The Washington, DC Metropolitan Police Memorial was constructed in 1942 to commemorate Metropolitan police officers killed in the line of duty. Also designed by Earley and likewise made up of exposed aggregate, the project saw the renovation of the historic fountain and addition of a new Memorial Wall and lighting.

“Consigli worked closely with our project partners to ensure that the restoration work enhanced the longevity of the sites while preserving the integrity and historic fabric of both Meridian Hill Park and the DC Police Memorial,” said Phil Brault, Director of Operations of the Washington, D.C. office. “This recognition by the DC Preservation League is a testament to Consigli’s commitment and passion for historic preservation here in the District, as well as to the talent of our project teams, our historic preservationists and our skilled trade partners who made these honors possible.”

This is the second year in a row that the DC Preservation League has recognized Consigli. In 2022 Consigli received the Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation for Design and Construction for their work on the transformative MLK Gateway project in Anacostia.

PORTLAND, ME – Maine Preservation has recognized Consigli Construction Co., Inc. with a 2018 Maine Preservation Honor Award for its outstanding work to restore the L.L. Bean Home and Archive Center in Freeport, Maine.  The award celebrates excellence in historic preservation leadership, rehabilitation and craft and acknowledges Consigli’s craftsmanship and engineering to repair the exterior and foundation of the building.

“This restoration represents a new landmark in Freeport and reflects the culture of craftsmanship that is inseparable from L.L. Bean, Consigli and the surrounding community,” said Matthew Tonello, Area Manager for Consigli Portland.

Only a short distance from the L.L. Bean company’s flagship store, the careful restoration of the Queen Ann Victorian style house, built in the late 1880’s provides a historically accurate glimpse into the Leon Bean family home, which now serves as a museum and archive center housing Bean’s original documents, photographs and possessions.
