Projects - Fernwood Elementary School

Project: 10041 South Union St, Chicago, IL

Next Gen Services partnered with Path Construction Company in the 2020 renovation of the CPS’ Fernwood Elementary School on Chicago’s south side. The scope included demolition of the old 75-foot tall incinerator chimney down to 15 feet in height. NGS ordered a precast concrete cap for the chimney and hoisted the 5,800-pound cap into place, covering the remaining structure. NGS’ also delivered additional masonry restoration services on the interior and exterior of the school within the tight timeframe dictated by the school’s summer break.
