Weekly Progress Update 10/7/22

Thank you again for your patience and cooperation through our renovation.

Here are a few things to keep in mind.

• During construction, the surface lot will only be available for those with assigned spaces.

• Visitors will not be able to park in the lot and visiting employees should be prepared to find remote parking. Double Parking will not be permitted.

• During construction, emergency egress will stay the same.

• Emergency issues related to the 643 renovations should be routed to Jack Brown at 847-338-4308.

• All general building maintenance/engineering issues should still be sent to Tom Brannon at 847-609-7893.

• The Chicago Cubs conference room on the eighth floor is now available to reserve through Outlook.

• Reception is no longer located in the Lobby. During the renovation, you should plan to meet guests and deliveries at the first-floor entrance.

• The elevator walls will be protected during construction, but the elevators will still be accessible. At times tradespeople may be using the elevators and stairwells to transport materials. Please be cautious and plan longer travel times when moving through the building.

This Week

• Ceiling Demo 1st and 2nd floor

Again, thank you for your patience. Next week, you can expect increased activity and it will become loud at times.

• Shot blasting (roughing up the surface in preparation for new flooring) on the second floor starts at the end of the week.

• Saw cut and chip out the first-floor tile and concrete.

• Radius curve of tile will be removed.
