South Coast Improvement Company (SCI), a design-build general contractor serving New England and the Mid-Atlantic states, recently began work on a $3 million addition to the YWCA Southeastern Mass, located at 20 6th Street, New Bedford, Mass.

The addition will add 6500 square feet to the property, which will be used for after-school child care and supportive women’s housing programs.

After a groundbreaking ceremony on April 28, work on the project began on Monday, May 8. The anticipated completion date is January 2019.
