About the Project

In Fall 2008, Truman College began construction on the $55 million Larry McKeon Administrative Building, funded by the State of Illinois and the City of Chicago. The project is expected to be complete by Fall 2010. The new building will allow the college to consolidate Student Services and open more classroom space in the main building. The parking deck will provide more than 1100 spaces. The building is named after the late Illinois legislator who secured the initial funding.

Construction Update for February, 4 2010

Duct work going in, panels going up

Construction continues on the first floor with installation of air ducts, electrical lines, plumbing, heat pipes, and sprinkler pipes. The tower crane has been removed and crews are pouring concrete where the crane used to be, as well as finishing stair roofs, garage ramp walls, curbs, and parapets. Masonry walls are going up on the first floor and the records vault is complete. The elevator machine room and the mechanical and electrical rooms are in progress. Crews will begin to install the pre-cast concrete outer panels the week of February 8. Expect increased traffic to the site from Wilson. As always, a flagger will be on duty.
