March 25, 2009 – Forrester Construction Company has been awarded the $14 Million Design Build Hubbard Hall Project at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. The project involves the Restoration and Modernization of Building 260 (Hubbard Hall), which is the historic home of the United States Naval Academy’s crew teams.
