HOLIDAY LUNCH AT COMMODORE JOHN RODGERS
Last Friday, CAM Construction hosted a Holiday Lunch on behalf of the Maryland Stadium Authority and Baltimore City Public Schools to thank all of the trade subcontractors and laborers that are working on the Commodore John Rodgers Replacement School project. The event included catering from MISSION BBQ as well as a free-to-enter raffle with a variety of tools, electronics, and gift cards for the attendees to win. We are deeply appreciative of all of the trades and laborers, as well as the design team at Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates – Architects, for their hard work and dedication to building this facility.
MABEL H. HUBBARD COURTHOUSE RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY
Yesterday, CAM Construction had the honor of attending the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the Mabel H. Hubbard District Court at 500 N Calvert Street in Baltimore. This courthouse, which honors the legacy of the first African-American woman elected to serve on a Maryland bench, will provide a new and improved space for the Baltimore community to ensure that justice is accessible and served with dignity.
We are proud to have contributed to this landmark project that not only enhances the judicial infrastructure of Baltimore but also pays tribute to Judge Hubbard’s pioneering legacy. This state-of-the-art facility represents our commitment to building spaces that serve and uplift the communities we work in.
Thank you to Maryland Department of General Services, Bushey Feight Morin Architects Inc., and our subcontractors who partnered with us on this meaningful project. Here’s to creating infrastructure that honors the past while building for the future.

TAKE A TOUR: Behind-the-Scenes Drone Footage of Montebello EMS
MUST SEE: Drone Fly-Through Video of Highlandtown EMS
It’s our pleasure to share this great drone fly-through video, produced by 21st Century Schools, showcasing the $22 million Highlandtown Project! Lots of natural light, beautiful ceiling details, and a seamless transition from the historic facility into the newly constructed Middle School wing (both inside & out). The school boasts new science labs, art studios, music room, and a makerspace/tech lab. Outdoor spaces include an all-new playground and recreational soccer field, fulfilling a long-held vision of the community that emerged as a priority during early planning meetings! Shoutout to John Srygley on another sharp design.
Scenes from the Ribbon Cutting at Montebello Elementary/Middle
A buzz of excitement was in the air as CAM wrapped up 2022 by hosting two major ribbon cutting ceremonies IN ONE WEEK, showcasing our recently completed 21st Century Schools Projects: Highlandtown Elementary/Middle and Montebello Elementary/Middle! We were overjoyed to have the chance to unveil these beautiful new facilities to the throngs of students and parents, eager to explore their new classrooms, libraries, dining halls, and collaborative learning spaces. Special thanks to leaders like Governor Larry Hogan, Senate President Bill Ferguson, Mayor Brandon Scott, Council President Nick Mosby, Principal Denise Ashley, Principal Troy Mitchell, and other city advocates who were instrumental in getting these plans approved, who came out to celebrate the momentous occasions and tour the final product.
What better feeling than to give over 1,400 young students the gift of a brand new school for Christmas! Certainly much more work to be done, but together we can change the lives of Marylanders for the better, one building at a time.
