We are very glad we chose Stanmar, Inc. to design and construct our Steve Tisch Sports and Fitness Center. It’s a more efficient design, we have far superior program spaces, and we’ve realized significant cost savings.

For 10 years, Tufts University wrestled with design concepts from several different architects to renovate an existing aged athletic building. Each time, the project stalled due to spiraling costs, unworkable design concepts, and shrinking program spaces. Our design team was invited to offer our ideas and suggestions for the project and after listening to the University’s needs, developed a new approach with a completely different floor plan and entry concept. Working in partnership with DiMella Shaffer Architects, the resulting design became a signature facility for Tufts, meeting the University’s programmatic needs, unifying its existing historic buildings, and keeping within its budget. Recently opened in 2012, the new facility creates a strong visual connection to Tufts Athletics, and enhances campus life for all members of the University’s community.
