WOBURN, MA – Cambridge Rindge & Latin High School and Consigli Construction announced today that Wing Inc. – Specialty Trades will perform the demolition as the facility prepares for renovation.
Cambridge Rindge & Latin is one of the oldest public high schools in the nation. Once two separate schools called Cambridge High and Latin and the Rindge Technical School, the merged entity today is now commonly abbreviated as CRLS or Rindge. Located in historic Cambridge, MA the school serves as the only public high school in town.
Since 2003 the City of Cambridge has been mobilizing an ambitious plan to renovate the current high school. The project they claim would be the first major renovation and refurbishing of the 35-year old high school building. The project had continued to be pushed back, due to state funding issues and other obstructions along the way. In 2006 the state announced a return in funding and by the spring 2007 the School Committee started looking at a wider ranging renovation for the building. The plan has until now proceeded and as currently planned, the major renovations are expected to begin after the close of the 2008-2009 school year with estimated total construction costs in excess of $80 million.
