Client: LaThomus Property Services
Consultant: Klein & Hoffman, Inc.
Assignment: Exterior Wall Rehabilitation
Duration: 2 Years
Project Value: $740,000

Due to its eastern exposure along the shores of Lake Michigan, this unique concrete building sitting on North Lake Shore Drive required rehabilitation of the concrete columns and roof beams on the front and rear elevations. The deteriorated concrete, along with existing patches that had failed over the years, were replaced with new structural concrete and the addition of anti-corrosion anodes to help future deterioration. In addition, the brick spandrel panels were repaired, tuckpointed and resealed. When all repairs were complete, the two building facades were coated with a new elastomeric coating for a fresh look and a protective barrier against moisture penetration.
