Projects

Expansion and renovation of an active workforce training facility requiring coordinated tenant improvement and new construction within an existing building. The project included a 5,500 SF interior renovation and a 1,500 SF addition designed to increase training capacity and improve operational flow.

The work involved relocation of the primary entrance, structural modifications including new footings, and full upgrades to mechanical, plumbing, and building systems. Interior spaces were reconfigured to support administrative functions, classroom instruction, and hands-on training environments.

MCG led construction with a focus on sequencing, system coordination, and schedule control, delivering a fully integrated facility aligned with program requirements and long-term use.

Façade reconstruction of a 6,000 SF historic commercial building requiring full exterior envelope replacement, hazardous material abatement, and structural repair within an occupied urban corridor. Originally constructed in 1908, the building required significant intervention to address deteriorated exterior assemblies and maintain long-term performance. MCG was engaged to execute a controlled reconstruction of the façade, including asbestos abatement, removal of failing wall systems, installation of a new weather-resistive barrier system, full window replacement, soffit repair, and new siding and exterior finishes.

The work required disciplined sequencing to safely manage abatement, protect the existing structure, and coordinate installation of new envelope systems within the constraints of the existing building. MCG aligned scope, safety, and construction execution to deliver a stabilized, code-compliant exterior that supports the building’s continued use and long-term durability.

Renovation of a 2,882 SF residential-scale facility to support a program-driven environment for Portland Community College faculty and visiting authors. The project required integration of new building systems and accessibility upgrades within an existing structure while preserving key architectural elements.

MCG worked in close coordination with the PCC design team to execute interior and exterior improvements, including a new accessible kitchen, full accessibility upgrades, plumbing system replacement from street to building, restroom reconfiguration, and deck repair and reconstruction.

The project required disciplined coordination of existing conditions, including flooring systems, mechanical performance, and preservation of original wood finishes. MCG led value engineering efforts to resolve these conditions, align scope with budget, and maintain performance standards without compromising the integrity of the space.

This project reflects MCG’s ability to manage renovation work where existing conditions, design intent, and system upgrades must be aligned through controlled execution and real-time decision-making.

A licensed childcare facility renovation delivered within an active, regulated environment where safety, code compliance, and uninterrupted operations were critical. The project required strict adherence to life-safety requirements, accessibility standards, and state licensing criteria while maintaining daily functionality of the facility.

MCG led construction through a phased and highly coordinated approach, maintaining clear separation between active operations and work zones, protecting egress, and ensuring compliance at every stage. The result was a fully upgraded facility delivered with disciplined execution, minimal disruption, and alignment with all regulatory requirements.

A complex mechanical system replacement delivered within an active campus environment where timing, coordination, and system performance were critical. This project required full removal and installation of VRF systems across occupied facilities, demanding precise sequencing, shutdown planning, and integration with existing building infrastructure.

MCG supported preconstruction, cost alignment, and construction coordination ensuring that design, procurement, and installation stayed synchronized from start to finish. The result was a controlled, schedule-driven execution that minimized disruption to campus operations while delivering a high-performance mechanical system upgrade.

MCG led construction execution for this 1907 farmhouse renovation, working alongside a development partner who directed acquisition and overall project strategy. Renovation of this 640 SF farmhouse. Executing a full transformation designed to maximize livability, efficiency, and market appeal within a constrained footprint.

Scope included interior reconfiguration, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, new finishes throughout, and exterior improvements to enhance curb appeal and usability. The approach focused on making the home function beyond its size delivering a clean, modern aesthetic while preserving the integrity of the original structure.

MCG led the acquisition and full interior repositioning of this 3,676 SF townhouse, transforming an outdated asset into a market-ready, design-forward residence.

Scope included targeted upgrades to the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, lighting, and interior finishes, with a focus on creating a cohesive, elevated living environment aligned with current buyer expectations. The team prioritized high-impact improvements that enhanced both functionality and visual appeal without overextending the budget. Delivered on an accelerated 60-day schedule, the project was completed with disciplined cost control and minimal overruns. The repositioning resulted in a strong resale outcome, demonstrating MCG’s ability to efficiently convert underperforming residential assets into high-value properties.

Full Home Repositioning | Basement Conversion + Interior Transformation

MCG led the full acquisition and repositioning of this three-level residential property, transforming an underutilized and dated home into a functional, market-ready asset designed for modern living. The existing home presented significant inefficiencies, including a basement level used strictly for storage, outdated interior finishes, and limited cohesion across living spaces. MCG approached the project with a clear strategy: unlock usable square footage, modernize the interior, and elevate the overall livability of the home. Scope included a full interior renovation featuring kitchen and bathroom upgrades, new flooring, lighting, and finish packages throughout. A key component of the project was the conversion of the basement from a non-functional storage area into livable space, significantly increasing the home’s usability and perceived value. The team also addressed exterior improvements, enhancing curb appeal and creating a clean, cohesive look from street to interior.

The result is a fully transformed home that delivers on both function and design—turning a fragmented, outdated property into a cohesive, multi-level living environment positioned to compete at a higher level in the market.

MCG transformed this 1,330 SF home into a functional and livable space designed for modern lifestyles, with a strong emphasis on indoor-outdoor connection.

The existing structure lacked flow, usability, and connection to the exterior environment. Our team executed a comprehensive renovation that improved interior layout, upgraded finishes, and activated the exterior space to extend the living environment beyond the walls of the home.

This project required deeper investment and problem-solving, including managing cost overruns while maintaining the integrity of the final product. The end result is a cohesive, lifestyle-driven home that delivers both comfort and usability, significantly increasing its market appeal and value.
