Project Summary
Bayview deployed both its Demolition and Environmental divisions to complete the full gut of the historic Graduate Hotel in Palo Alto, California. The project encompassed all six floors (7,500 SF each), as well as the roof and basement. Bayview’s Environmental team abated all lead- and asbestos-containing materials throughout the building. Offloading debris presented a challenge due to the lack of street space for dumpsters, requiring placement inside the ground floor. Upon clearance, the Demolition team executed soft demolition and selective hard demolition at various locations, demonstrating Bayview’s expertise in managing complex, high-density urban projects with environmental and logistical constraints.
