Project Goals

  • To manage the renovation and new construction of the former State of Delaware Psychiatric Patient Facility through phased construction.

  • To provide seamless integration - both structurally and aesthetically - between the old and new structure.









Extensive unknown site conditions, hazardous materials removal, complicated installation requirements for the mechanical and electrical systems, and limited subcontractor continuity between construction phases challenged nearly every aspect of this project. Through innovative and creative construction techniques, frequent status and organizational meetings with the Project Team and subcontractors, and a "whatever it takes" attitude, Bancroft delivered the building according to all project objectives. Bill Davis, then the Program Manager for Delaware's Division of Facilities and Management, identified Bancroft's tenacity and construction management skills as the key factors for the ultimate success of the project.
