Himmelman Construction Inc. recently completed Phase III of The STEM School and Academy, which is located at 8773 S. Ridgeline Blvd. in Highlands Ranch. This is an award-winning K-12 charter public school in the Douglas County School District. In 2012, Himmelman was awarded The STEM High School renovation project, which included 30,000 square feet of classrooms, common areas and administration space. Barrons Building Phases I and II involved the transformation of an office building into a highly functioning school facility and included new classrooms, bathrooms, offices and full security. Barrons Building Phase III included 20 new classrooms, multiple new bathrooms, a new gymnasium, a full commercial kitchen and a cafeteria. The entire expansion project totaled 71,000 sf. “As a general contracting firm that focuses on community-based projects, including school facilities of all types, our relationship with The STEM School and Academy goes back many years and is highly valued,” said Josh Hill, Himmelman project manger. “Working side by side with their executive team and school administrators, we collectively built a facility that will house and nurture students of all ages for decades to come.” Founded in 1955, Himmelman is a full-service construction management and contracting firm, providing a wide range of preconstruction and construction services to owners and developers across Colorado.
