DANVERS, MA
Since 2016, DSA has done a series of projects of different purposes and scope to fill a variety of the Essex North Shore Agricultural & Technical School’s improvement needs.
MSPCA Angell Animal Sciences
The Animal Sciences Building required an addition to expand the program and additional classroom space for this dynamic mixed use educational facility and working veterinary clinic that also serves as a sanctuary for various animals.
Cafeteria Addition
To support ENSATS enrollment expansion, we designed a 1,400 sqft addition to their cafeteria, allowing for 100 additional seats. The architecture is in keeping with the existing building.
