A state-of-the-art optical laser laboratory for the 135+-year-old Jefferson Laboratory Building at Harvard University.

The second floor included an amenity space finished with a kitchenette, lounge, conference room, and seating area. Installation of significant structural upgrades and coordinated custom-built mechanical equipment to support the lab and its laser equipment, chemical fume hood, and annealing furnace. Major MEP/FP updates included the installation and assembly of two AHUs in their new mechanical support spaces and remastered sprinkler system.
