AKWESASNE â If youâve driven along Route 37 in Akwesasne during the past month, you couldnât help but notice several construction projects that are underway or nearly completed. One of those is located adjacent to the former-IGA Building and entails construction of a new and expanded Family Advocate Building and a Tribal Court Building.
Utilizing the Akwesasne-based general contractor Akwesasne Earth Movers (AEM), the two new facilities represent the latest efforts by the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe to use CARES Act funds to provide a safe and healthy workplace for workers and clients. Previously situated in smaller facilities, the two tribal operations could not accomplish necessary social distancing.
