Shawmut announces completion of business school renovation at St. John’s University

Shawmut Design and Construction last month announced the completion of the renovation and expansion of the Peter J. Tobin College of Business on the Queens Campus of St. John’s University.

Shawmut renovated the 70,000 square-foot, four-story space to serve as the new home of the university’s Tobin College of Business. The team updated the space by creating an expanded lobby area, a high-tech financial lab, a central staircase, a new outdoor patio area with a sloped glass entry, and modified the front façade to install a new curtainwall system.

“Collaborating with St. John’s University to bring their vision of a flexible learning environment to life was an exciting task for our team,” said Shawmut vice president Tony Miliote. “It was a rewarding experience to upgrade a space at the university that will foster connections and collaboration within the community.”
