It's Officially Women

in Construction Week!

Every individual construction project provides a significant contribution to the overall transformation taking place on Princeton’s campus. In celebration of Women in Construction Week (March 5 - 11) and National Women's History Month, we are highlighting the women in Facilities and women working as contractors on our construction, design and consulting teams that help us achieve success.
