In 2012 HAWK Construction teamed up with over 20 sub-contractors as Greenway HS underwent extensive new construction and renovations. Everything from locker rooms and restrooms, to science rooms and gymnasiums were included in the project. Increased access between buildings was achieved with new pedestrian tunnels and site work. The project as a whole was over 43,000 sf.

The 2021 ICC Student Center addition includes a 3,500 sf addition, linking the existing media center to Davies hall. The new addition houses a student center with common areas and game room. At the adjacent media center remodel, important considerations involved: 1) coordinating design around multiple existing buildings, 2) integrating a library, learning center, bookstore, student lounge and smaller offices and study spaces and 3) creating an accessible pedestrian access to the existing campus.

The student center features clear maple wall panels, hand-crafted on-site by HAWK craftsmen, while the learning commons is grounded by a gas fireplace finished in natural stone from the iron range.

HAWK Construction completed the carpentry package and concrete work for two new elementary schools that opened for the 2020-2021 school year in Grand Rapids. As part of the construction team, the projects reportedly finished on budget and ahead of schedule. Total sf for both projects was over 85,000 sf.
