For this recovery center pavilion project, Romtec designed and supplied a custom log pavilion for the High Watch Recover Center campus in Kent, Connecticut. We worked to provide a unique recover center pavilion for this campus that provides residential treatment services and a sober living campus for those dealing with drug and alcohol addiction.
We worked with the architects and engineers working on upgrades to the campus with Silver Petrucelli and Associates to have this new custom log pavilion match with other upgrades happening at the same time with new buildings and other upgrades to the facility.

Recovery Center Pavilion
The High Watch Recovery Center is an accredited addiction recovery center located near Kent Connecticut, near the Housatonic River and Kent Falls State Park. They are an “inpatient spiritual rehabilitation facility providing respectful and compassionate solace, allowing one to obtain the essential therapy and medical treatment to offset active drug and alcohol addiction”, according to the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers. High Watch Recovery provides their patients with medical care to “repair brain damage caused by abuse of substances as well as diagnose and treat psychiatric disorders that may interfere with continued abstinence”. The Center has been serving the State of Connecticut for over 70 years. (“High Watch Recovery Center”, n.d.)
The center is the premier Connecticut detox center, while providing residential treatment and sober living campus for those dealing with chronic illness of drug and alcohol addiction.
The Romtec supplied pavilion is part of a larger campus project for the High Watch Center and will provide patients with a place to enjoy the peaceful nature of the campus during their stay. As part of the expansion and upgrades to the campus, there is a new a detox clinic, group room, and new kitchen/dining room and reconfiguration of existing spaces. A new large conference center for training programs, workshops and events. A silo was designed to capture the essence of the original farm. Fixtures, furnishings and materials such as reclaimed wood enhance the character of the buildings throughout the new and renovated spaces.
