The building was designed by Flad and Associates and is characterized as a post-modern high rise. The building was built in 1990 with Luna Pearl grey granite cladding.

The ZS team was retained to perform a City of Milwaukee Façade Critical Examination. During the examination, distressed conditions were identified and quantified. The following year, Contract Documents were developed for bidding, and repairs were performed by a local qualified contractor.

This project’s cradle-to-grave project approach included:

  • Performed a thorough condition survey of the building’s exterior façade, including a hands-on examination along all building elevations
  • Developed remedial repair recommendations including the use of state-of-the-art non-staining silicone sealant and specialty designed granite patching
  • Prepared detailed repair bidding documents for the selected repairs
  • Performed owner assistance services in issuing the project for bid in accordance with owner bidding procedures and requirements
  • Performed full-time construction observation and management services
