PAMPC Upcoming Lane Closure

The consolidation and lane closure of County Highway E is continuing as expected. Residents should see significant work being done right now. We have barricades in place to shift the traffic lanes which have allowed us to continue working without affecting the traffic flow. In regards to last week’s progress, we stripped the topsoil on the south side of CTH E and are working on establishing the subgrade base for the extended roadway. Work to consolidate County Highway E, on the north side of the site, into one lane is from 7am- 4pm. This work will produce a turning lane into the Archives & Park Center lot, which will prevent future delays once we are fully open. Continue to check our website and Facebook page for the latest updates. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us at info@pritzkerarchivespark.com with any questions, comments, or concerns.

Hoisting into place in a rare and highly coordinated effort using seven different cranes.
Hoisting into place in a rare and highly coordinated effort using seven different cranes.
Once overhead rough-ins for the MEPFP systems were installed in the lower-level archival space, we were able to deliver the air handling units that will provide heating, ventilation and air conditioning to the whole building.
In the future, this system will ensure the archives are kept at the proper temperature and humidity levels necessary to store and preserve archival material.
The steel beams for each 400′ truss were delivered to the site and welded together to form one contiguous structure.

The steel structure at the core of the building was installed to receive the truss walls. This included gridline columns, beams, and roof decking.
Masonry walls continued to be built for the various rooms on the lower levels and the first primer coat of paint was applied to the concrete in the basement. Once the primer was applied, overhead rough-in of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems began.
