The Early Learning Center 
at the Shurtleff School
Chelsea, Massachusetts

Square Footage: 113,795
Construction Cost: $13.9 million

Finegold Alexander renovated the historic Shurtleff School, to a new Early Learning Center. The project included renovating the existing 1909 and 1912 buildings and creating a playful, new 6,000 square foot pavilion to enclose the space between the buildings, create a new "front door" for the school, and provide space for two multi-purpose rooms. The school will accommodate up to 1100 preschool and kindergarten students in 50 classrooms.
