Winter Street Architects has generously donated to CAL, INC 1400 S.F. of space a few doors down from the Peabody Essex Museum in historic Salem MA. The new address: 209 Essex Street, Suite 100. The shop is a wood shop and digital fabrication + innovation lab. The intent is that anything a person can dream, they can build. In addition to the conventional tools and machines CAL, INC has, we also give students access to some of the most sophisticated manufacturing technology available today, enabling them to use their creativity to bridge technologies from multiple centuries.
