It truly takes a village to shape the future of cancer care. Recently, members of the team who are working on the Phillip and Susan Ragon Building construction project gathered on the bridge that will soon connect the new facility to Massachusetts General Hospital's main campus. This moment represents just a fraction of the countless individuals whose dedication has brought us this far—and whose efforts will continue long after the building opens in early 2028.

Our McSal New York team participated in Canstruction New York, Inc.'s build night at Brookfield Place last week. Our theme was Kick Back Against Hunger with MEYERS+ ENGINEERS, paying homage to the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026™ - Canada, Mexico and the United States. Please for us for the People's Choice Award here: https://lnkd.in/ey787eSy The structure consists of 4,630 cans of tuna and assorted vegetables. The entire build—which is said to feed 2,500 New Yorkers—sits on an 8’-0” x 8’-0” base and stands roughly 7’-0” tall. Amongst the other 22 teams, the 2025 competition has collected nearly 80,000 cans for City Harvest Food Bank. The structures are on display for viewing now through Monday, November 10th. Great work to all participants! #creativetothecore #structrualengineering #structrualengineer #structrualengineers #structuraldesign #canstruction #canstructionny #charity #foodbank
