SAN DIEGO, CA– McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. (www.mccarthy.com), one of the nation’s leading education facility builders, has topped out steel construction for the new 206,000-gross-square-foot, four-story Math and Science Building in the heart of San Diego Mesa College, located at 7250 Mesa College Dr. in the Clairemont area of San Diego, Calif.
San Diego Community College District representatives, San Diego Mesa College faculty members, and project team members gathered recently to commemorate the milestone with a traditional topping out ceremony.
"Students and faculty members can look forward to this being an exceptional facility, representing the largest and one of the most complex projects being built on the San Diego Mesa College campus with Proposition S and N construction bond funds,” said David Umstot, vice chancellor of facilities management for the San Diego Community College District. “Construction is going smoothly, and we’re on target for completion in August of next year.”
The $110 million Math and Science Building occupies the area immediately east of the existing Learning and Resource Building and south of the I-300 Building.
McCarthy construction crews disassembled three older buildings on the site before breaking ground for the new facility in August of 2011. Construction has required careful monitoring and managing to minimize disruption to regular campus activities.
This is the third major project McCarthy has worked on at San Diego Mesa College on behalf of the San Diego Community College District.
The company also built the new three-story, 50,000-square-foot Allied Health Building, which was completed in August of 2009 and awarded LEED Gold Certification by the USGBC. McCarthy also built the new the Miramar College parking structure and police substation, which was completed in August of 2011 and is expected to receive LEED Platinum Certification by the USGBC.

Since this would be a large-scale construction, a party wall agreement would definitely be needed.
