Skanska and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) have topped out the Artificial Intelligence and Quantitative Biology building at CSHL, marking a major milestone in Phase I of the institution’s “Foundations for the Future” campaign. This initiative represents a major investment in CSHL’s infrastructure and research capabilities.
As part of the $248 million Phase I development, Skanska is providing construction management services for a massive 379,500-square-foot campus expansion. This phase includes the addition of advanced neuroscience and cancer biology laboratories, the new AI research building, and a new parking structure.
Phase II of the $500 million overall campaign will add an 81,000-square-foot research housing and conference center, as well as a 56,000-square-foot housing and collaborative research center to accommodate visiting scientists. Substantial completion of the entire campaign is targeted for early 2027.
“With roots dating back to the 1800s, CSHL continues to exemplify a longstanding commitment to progress, innovation, and building for the future,” said Sean Szatkowski, Executive Vice President and General Manager at Skanska USA Building. “It’s an honor to aid in carrying the Laboratory’s legacy forward through this transformative seven-acre expansion.”
