Shawmut Design and Construction, a leading national construction management firm, held its ninth annual Broken Resolutions party on Thursday January 23 to celebrate the firm’s record revenue year and new leadership team.

Guests received an exclusive look at both the front and back of house in the new Shawmut-built restaurant located in Hudson Yards.

With this new role in place, Shawmut is projecting 2020 year-over-year double-digit growth for the New York Metro region. The firm is projecting growth across all sectors as it will double its Luxury Homes business in the region and continue to build a roster of high-profile projects in the Education sector—a business the company is expecting to see triple-digit growth.
