O&G Completes Wethersfield High School Renovation

TORRINGTON, CT O&G Industries has substantially completed the renovation of Wethersfield High School in Wethersfield, Connecticut.
Construction on the $83.7 million high school project began in the summer of 2013 with all space turned over to the school administration in the fall of 2016. The project included a 250,000 -square-foot renovation within the existing facility to "as-new" condition while the building remained fully occupied by students and facility during construction. The project also included a 24,000-square-foot expansion.
The heart of the renovation included a complete overhaul of the auditorium with new mezzanine seating, additional classrooms and repurposed spaces for music, art and technology. Additions included a new gymnasium, new media center, band room and elevator.
Upgraded features include an electronic music room and recording studio, a greenhouse and green roof, a photovoltaic solar panel system, technology in every classroom and significant energy conservation measures incorporated into the construction of the school.
