FORMA

FORMA marks a major milestone in West Seattle.   

This summer FORMA began work on renovations to a portion of James Madison Middle School; as well as a 2-story classroom building, site work, and a new free-standing bike shelter in collaboration with Seattle Public Schools.

With the final beam of the new 12,000+ SF addition lifted into place today, we marked the Topping Out of the steel structure–a total of 1,687 pieces of steel bolted, riveted, and welded by our Ironworkers, Industry Erectors, a native-owned business.

The new building at MMS will feature 6 classrooms, 2 science labs, 4 bathrooms, and 2 large Bioretention planters for the capture, treatment, and management of site stormwater. The new bike shelter, also a steel structure, will house 12 racks to keep 24 bikes secure and dry for MMS students and staff.

Work is progressing ahead of schedule–follow along via Instagram to watch us build!
