South Shore Associate Architects

To Whom it May Concern:

This is to express my full recommendation for the Congress Construction Company and its capacity to construct projects of any nature in the Hospitality Industry, including Hotels, Restaurants and any other Hospitality venture.

In my capacity as the Director of Architecture for the Howard Johnson Restaurant and Motor Lodge Company, I worked and collaborated with Congress Construction on over 150 projects over two decades. This is a closely held Corporation staffed with capable Superintendents and Construction Managers that are committed to serving the client. This is the reason why we worked with Congress Construction on such a large number of projects throughout the Eastern Seaboard.

Their ability to work closely with our architects and solve projects and deliver high quality products for their clients is of the highest caliber. My personal association with Mr. Paul Nicholson, the founder of the Congress Construction firm, as well as Mr. Peter Nicholson, General Superintendent for the firm, and Mr. William Nicholson, the second generation President of the firm, has resulted in a strong business and personal relationship which we value greatly.

Their ability to work in locations remote from their home office in eastern Massachusetts, be it rural location or in urban sites was exemplified by their construction for the Howard Johnson Company throughout the New England States and the Northeast region of the united States.

I would recommend Congress Construction for any Hospitality project in any location.

Very truly yours,
Herbert E. Olsen, Jr. A.L.A.
