KENMORE APARTMENTS
LOCATION : Chicago, Illinois CONTRACT VALUE : $19,000,000
The Kenmore Apartments project is another step forward for the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA). With a LEED Platinum designation this was the their first LEED project. Construction began on the eight-story building in the Uptown neighborhood of Chicago in December of 2009 with selective slab demolition on each floor to pave the way for new elevator shafts and stairwells. Following the top-down slab demolition, structural steel was installed from the bottom-up, followed by the installation of partition framing and MEP systems. The MEP and roof were a complete replacement on this project. Also included in this project was the renovation of 100 apartment units including vinyl wood flooring, new bathrooms, and new kitchens. Public area finishes included lobby terrazzo flooring, library with custom millwork, and public meeting room. It also included construction of all new HVAC systems including Air Handling equipment, cooling towers, emergency generators, and new fire pump.
