Lajoie Brothers, of Augusta, and Bangor-based WBRC Architects/Engineers completed the $5 million expansion of the Children’s Center in Augusta.
The project included a 14,000-square-foot expansion and renovation of 5,000 square feet of existing space. The projects added classrooms, specialized service areas and administrative space. The site was dedicated in a ceremony Sept. 7.
The Children’s Center provides center-based services for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years old. Outpatient services include occupational therapy, speech therapy, outpatient mental health for children and families and case management support to kids up to age 21.
Annually, the Center serves about 400 children among its three sites: Augusta, Farmington and Skowhegan. All sites have waiting lists with Augusta’s being the largest at more than 100 children in need of center-based or outpatient services at any given time — so the expansion was needed.
“For the kids, this space provides more opportunity,” said Jeff Johnson, Children’s Center executive director.
Sheridan Construction, of Fairfiled, has been named general contractor for the Kennebec Valley Humane Society expansion in Augusta. The newly constructed building will total 19,100 square feet and is expected to improve the lives of animals housed there. The humane society has raised $6.6 million of the $7.7 million sought in its capital campaign.

PM Construction, of Portland, is putting the final touches on 218 Washington, which has 45 condo units in Portland.
Prock Marine, of Rockland, working with Versant Power, will lay the new communications and electric cable running from Mount Desert Island to Sutton Island in the Cranberry Isles. The cable will lay on the seabed, but will be “trenched in” at the shore locations on Mount Desert Island and Sutton Island. The new cable contains electrical conductors as well as a fiber optic cable that can transmit internet connectivity to the island. The old cable has been damaged by shifting rocks and general wear and tear from the tides. Similar cables were installed to Swan’s Island and Islesford last year.
M.W. Hoss Construction, the Portland contractor that managed Good Fire Brewing’s South Freeport site and the mixed-use Yarmouth Commons, is handling a renovation project in a commercial building at 1355 Congress St.
