Wilber School Apartments Architect Promoted

The project architect for Sharon's has received a promotion.

Prellwitz Chilinski Associates Inc. in Cambridge has promoted Jason Cohen to associate, Boston/SF News reports.

Cohen is the "project architect for the Ames Shovel Works historic restoration re-use project in North Easton," according to Boston/SF News.

Sharon's former Wilber School reopened in January 2010 as 75 apartment homes across from CVS Pharmacy on South Main Street. Developers Beacon Communities Development LLC and Frontier Enterprises Inc. did the project.

In October 2010, the project was recognized for Best Historic Rehab Involving New Construction by the 2010 J. Timothy Anderson Awards for Excellence in Historic Rehabilitation. The National Housing & Rehabilitation Association, in association with the National Trust Community Investment Corporation presents the awards.

The Sharon Historical Commission honored Beacon and Frontier last December.
