“The work needed to be completed at multiple occupied buildings simultaneously, a challenge amplified by COVID-19, which meant that most residents would be at home during construction. In a coordinated effort with contractors and unions, GFT arrived at a plan for protecting residents and workers – while also ensuring steady workforce strength and adherence to work schedules. We commend GFT and their personnel for their outstanding dedication and performance.”
