Demakes Family YMCA New Music & Performing Arts Center
Lynn, MA
Square Footage: 7,500
Architect: SV Design
Services Provided:
Preconstruction, Construction Management
Project Scope:
The scope of this project involved demolition of an existing locker room to accommodate construction of a new, state-of-the-art music and performing arts center. This space provides the Demakes Family YMCA with a modern performance theater, a radio station/podcasting studio, recording studios, individual and group practice rooms, a training room, library, and tech room.
Significant updates were required to meet current building codes. Connolly Brothers collaborated closely with the YMCA of Metro North's team and project architect SV Design to ensure the successful completion of this project.
This project will enable the Demakes Family YMCA to significantly increase its capacity to provide vital art and music programs to a growing number of young people in Lynn and the surrounding communities.
"Working with Connolly Brothers has been a true partnership from start to finish. Their team approached this project with integrity and a shared commitment to our mission, always focused on finding solutions and a strong sense of accountability. Because of their care and professionalism, this space will open doors for young people to discover their voices, build confidence, and access opportunities they may not have otherwise had. Their work has helped turn a vision for community impact into reality."
