The College of William & Mary
To prepare the College of William and Mary for its fourth century of use,
the College has come to depend on Pro-Construction, for its historical
preservation and restoration of its architectural features. Through countless
projects both interior and exterior through-out the campus, Pro-Construction
gives careful attention to William and Mary’s distinctive colonial
style and the pleasing mellow tone of its rust-colored brick harmoniously
blended with later additions to the university, which characterize the
college as an integral part of Colonial Williamsburg, once the capitol
of Colonial America - whose residents included such notables as George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, George Mason and other Virginia
patriots. While Pro-Construction builds high-tech classroom facilities,
repairs floors and paneling, replaces mechanical systems, upgrades safety
to code and restores and stabilizes walls and foundations, the College
of William and Mary continues to reflect its 18th century heritage, alive
with history, yet vibrant with the energy of the minds that will shape
our future.

window and staircase entrance.
