Workmanship Rating: OUTSTANDING

Project Details:

  • Very challenging project in downtown Chicago’s “Loop”.
  • Required weekend deliveries, special permits, evening work and a multitude of other challenges.
  • Long before the sustainability movement, we designed an “outdoor green plaza” to be enjoyed by tenants and students from a former inaccessible courtyard roof area. New doors and windows were constructed to access the plaza.
  • Art Institute students designed patterns applied to concrete pavers providing a warm and creative social experience for all to enjoy.

“MidAmerica Roofing, Inc. was always accessible to meet our needs, which is incredibly
reassuring.”
