J.F. White Contracting Company successfully completed two Hub Stations for the MBTA in the fall of 2004. The Hub Stations were based on Edward and Kelcey conceptual drawings and are located at the MBTA concourse level at North Station and South Station. The main purpose for the Hub Stations is to provide security monitoring points for the authority, while at the same time providing central locations for customer relations officials.
Each Hub Station is connected to the closed circuit televisions throughout the MBTA tunnel system and has the capability to monitor several locations at the same time.
The Hub Stations consist of steel tube framing, stainless steel trim, laminated glazing, rubber floor tile, acoustical ceiling panels, acoustical wall board, HVAC systems, CCTV system, computers and electrical work. Construction of the Hub Stations was accomplished on a fast track schedule by J.F. White Civil, J.F. White Electrical, Environmental Interiors, Live Wave and Intelligent Systems and Controls.
