NOVI, MI — The Construction Association of Michigan (CAM) has named Detroit Catholic Central’s George & Mary Turek Hall of Science as its 2025 Project of the Year. The award was announced during CAM’s 140th Annual Meeting at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace (formerly the Suburban Collection Showplace) in Novi, Michigan.

Blending nearly a century of tradition with technology, the $51 million Turek Hall of Science offers dynamic learning environments that aim to spark innovation, exploration, and leadership. The facility includes eight naturally lit STEM labs, an observatory, a 270-degree digital immersion room, advanced flight simulators, and a sustainable greenhouse. A restored Blue Angel jet is suspended in the building’s high-tech robotics arena.

The project brought together Jonna Construction as owner’s representative, J.S. Vig Construction as construction manager, and Integrated Design Solutions as architect and engineer of record, with engineering services provided by Zeimet Wozniak & Associates, SDI Structures, and Grissim Metz Andriese Associates.

Set on a 115-acre campus in Novi, Michigan, the George & Mary Turek Hall of Science bridges tradition and innovation to provide students with a STEM education. This facility not only elevates the school’s academic profile but also prepares its students to lead and excel in rapidly evolving scientific and technological fields far into the future.

“The Turek Hall of Science is a remarkable achievement that will shape how students learn, explore, and imagine their futures,” CAM President Kevin Koehler said. “It’s a powerful example of Michigan’s construction industry delivering projects with real, lasting impact.”
