E.E. Austin has completed a new facility for the New York State United Teachers union (NYSUT) in Jamestown, NY.

Austin was the general contractor for the entire project, a 12,000-SF office building with exterior metal studs and masonry veneer, metal stud & drywall interior walls. The building houses several conference rooms and a research library space.

Landscaping work remains to be done this spring.

The Rochester Chapter of the Construction Specifications Institute also awarded the job with an "Outstanding Project Award" for demonstrating how well-prepared construction documents can help achieve a successful outcome to a project.

Quote from Jamestown Post-Journal article (2/23/08):

"The building was constructed by general contracting company E.E. Austin & Son, Inc. out of Falconer, Eggert said.

"He also said that the decision to use a union affiliated firm wasn’t a tough one.

" 'It was all built by union laborers for a union,' Eggert said. 'They did it according to the budget and on time. It was a real quality job.' "
