Elsewhere, Consigli also broke ground in early April on Tyler Technologies's office project in Orono. The 4-acre site, at 5 College Ave., had been the site of the University Inn Academic Suites, which Tyler acquired in 2021. The inn was demolished and Consigli is construct- ing a new building at the site. SMRT, which is based in Portland and has an office in Bangor, is the architect. Additionally, Consigli expects to break ground on the future site for the Roux Institute at Northeastern University Institute.
