Saint Xavier University - O’Grady Center

Location:
Chicago

Project Description:
Elevator Addition/Renovation

Saint Xavier University was looking to expand the presence of the campus into the neighboring community. Mazur+Son Construction was engaged to perform the adaptive reuse of the former church adding a new elevator and converting the nave into an open office environment. This project was in keeping with Saint Xavier’s “green buildings” initiative. The University was sensitive to the fact that working in an established residential community could prove to be problematic. Mazur+Son worked with the neighbors, establishing open lines of communication and eased any concerns that the construction would negatively impact the residents.

“Mazur provided personal attention to our project at the O’Grady Center. St. Xavier University was their top priority.”
