Preserving History
MACRC Carpenters are continuing to volunteer their time and skills this month to help preserve the historic home of Emmett Till in Chicago. We’re especially proud to be protecting this piece of America's heritage during Black History Month, ensuring Till's powerful story is never forgotten.
| We’re finishing up on an important project for families of Dardenne Prairie, MO. Solace Hospice House specializes in end-of-life care and they’ll soon have this 14-bed facility to meet their needs. Thank you to our professional team of carpenters working with Duggan Contracting, Waterhout, Ziege-Mueller and Henges for doing a beautiful job. | Mid-America Carpenters from Siteline and Consolidated Flooring are putting in the heavy lifting as they finish up a new luxury gym in Chicago's Fulton Market neighborhood. Carpenters are putting up some remaining dry wall and floor layers are covering the second floor in rubber tile. This multi-level iron paradise will be ready for patrons as early as next month! | This team from Hartline Construction is working on a renovation project at Missouri Town Living History Museum. The outdoor museum sits just outside of Kansas City, MO and gives visitors a taste of what life was like in the 1800s. The interactive village features many historical homes and buildings, some over 100 years old. Last year, members also restored a pair of log cabins on the property. | | Stats: Big Drop in Worker Drug Overdose Deaths | | Chicago: $850 Million Obama Center to Open in June | | Honored: Local 58 recently handed out pins to these milestone members.
