High School Memorial Grandstand
Bainbridge Island, Washington

Project Manager: Don Drury
Superintendent: Riley Arnold
Architect: NBBJ Architects and Jack Christiansen, Engineer

The site for this award-winning memorial grandstand was located 100' from the school and was adjacent to the school's athletic fields. With a restricted site and a construction schedule spanning from one school year to the next, safety was the highest priority for Drury Construction. It was with safety in mind that Drury Construction decided to cast 98 major structural components on site in addition to the formed-in-place foundations. Casting on site eliminated the need for large trucks carrying pre-cast components to maneuver through the penned in site while school was in session. Upon project completion, Drury Construction received the AGC Award for Excellence in Construction in addition to the deep satisfaction that there were no injuries to the workforce or to the ever-present student body and faculty.
