Projects

Childs Engineering supported the Edgartown Yacht Club across several years with inspections, permitting, and the design of a new steel and timber pier to replace the aging structure. The project involved preserving the historically registered main hall building, which required innovative engineering and careful coordination.

Childs led the permitting effort, securing approvals from local, state, and federal agencies through a detailed review process and multiple public hearings. Once approved, they completed the design of a new steel and timber pier that addressed complex structural and site-specific challenges. The team also assisted in selecting a qualified marine contractor and provided construction oversight, ensuring the project was completed on schedule. The result is a modern, resilient waterfront facility that preserves the Club’s historic character and serves its community for decades to come.
