RODE is working with the Martin Richard Foundation and Boys and Girls Clubs of Dorchester to design a new, multi-level fieldhouse on Mt. Vernon Street in Columbia Point. The facility will include an indoor turf field, track, and hard courts as well as a dance studio, theatre, training facility, café, cooking kitchen, nutrition center, classrooms, and more.

We have worked closely with our clients, the Boys and Girls Clubs of Dorchester and Martin Richard Foundation to ensure the facility meets the needs of the community. The project came to fruition through the collaborative efforts of our team—The Green Engineer, Howard Stein Hudson, Goulston & Storrs, Lee Kennedy Company, LAM Lighting & Design, BET Building Envelope Technologies, LeMessurier, Cosentini Associates, BR + A Consulting Engineers, Haley & Aldrich, Stoss Landscape Urbanism, Dot Joyce Consulting, CSL Consulting, and Joyce Strategies LLC.

The Fieldhouse aims to be a welcoming and inclusive recreational space for members of all ages to gather and connect.
