Hill International (NYSE:HIL), the global leader in managing
construction risk, announced today that it has been awarded a
contract from the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) to
manage the modernization of the James M. Ashley and Thomas W.L.
Ashley U.S. Courthouse in Toledo, Ohio. The two-year contract
has an estimated value to Hill of approximately $2.2 million.
The Ashley U.S. Courthouse is home to the
Northern Ohio District of the United States District Courts and
other building tenants. The building was originally built in
1932 and was named for two former Ohio Congressmen, James M. Ashley
and his great grandson Thomas W.L. Ashley. The
92,000-square-foot building, which is listed on the National
Register of Historic Places, was designed in the Beaux Art
Classicism style of architecture.
When complete, the $104 million modernization
and restoration of the existing historic building will include
infrastructure improvements and security enhancements. The project
also includes construction of a new 96,000 square-foot annex, which
will allow judiciary growth.
“We are honored that GSA has once again turned
to Hill to help manage one of their most important courthouse
projects,” said Vic Spinabelli, Jr., P.E., LEED AP, Senior Vice
President in charge of Hill's project management operations in
Western Pennsylvania and Ohio. “We are very excited to be
part of this historic modernization project,” added Spinabelli.
