New $1.5B Terminal Opens at Kansas City International Airport

by Kristin Harlow

KANSAS CITY, MO. — The new 40-gate terminal at Kansas City International Airport has opened for commercial air service. At just over 1 million square feet and a budget of $1.5 billion, the terminal marks the largest single infrastructure project in the city’s history, according to the airport. The new terminal features spacious gate areas, nearly 50 local and national food and beverage concepts, and shopping experiences. Two moving walkways expedite transfers between the two concourses. Consolidated and flexible security checkpoints with 16 lanes were designed to accommodate the ebb and flow of passenger volume. A new 6,200-space garage is adjacent to the terminal with covered parking. The new terminal replaces the previous three-terminal format at the airport. Terminal A was razed to make way for construction of the new terminal and garage. Terminals B and C remained in operation, but they officially close with the opening of the new terminal. The two old terminals will be razed. The Terminal B garage will remain open and serve as employee parking, and the Terminal C garage will be used for public parking in the future.

Skender Begins Transformation of Former McDonald’s Campus in Suburban Chicago into Ace Hardware Headquarters

by Kristin Harlow

OAK BROOK, ILL. — Skender has broken ground on the transformation of the former McDonald’s corporate campus in the Chicago suburb of Oak Brook. The 250,000-square-foot buildout will serve as the new headquarters of Ace Hardware. The project at 2915 Jorie Blvd. will consist of open workstations, 150 conference rooms, 12 cafes and a variety of collaboration spaces and amenities. Originally built in the 1970s and designed by Dirk Lohan, grandson of famed architect Mies van der Rohe, the campus consists of three buildings on more than 80 acres. The campus has sat empty since 2019, when the fast food giant moved its headquarters to Chicago’s Fulton Market. The renovation project will reuse and retain many of the main building’s original architectural elements, including a large atrium in the center. The first floor of the parking garage will be converted into an amenity suite that includes a fitness center, conference center, multi-purpose room and large cafeteria. Completion is slated for mid-to-late 2023. In addition to Skender, the project team includes CBRE Design Collective as architect and Environmental Systems Design Inc. as engineer.

McCarthy to Build $215M Expansion of Sioux Falls Regional Water Reclamation Plant

by Kristin Harlow

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — McCarthy Building Cos. Inc. will construct the $215 million expansion of the Sioux Falls Regional Water Reclamation Plant. The first major expansion since the plant was built in the 1980s, the project is expected to increase the facility’s capacity by 50 percent — from 21 million to 30 million gallons per day — and enhance operational efficiencies to meet growing demand throughout the community and region. Completion is slated for 2025. Plans call for the construction of a new three-story “headworks” building, where wastewater initially enters the treatment process; the installation of new generators and an extensive electrical system upgrade; installation of three additional aeration basins, where wastewater is treated by microbes; four “final clarifiers,” which are large circular pools where solids are separated from treated water; and the expansion of an area of the plant where water is treated with chlorine, including the addition of more storage tanks. The project received funding through loans from the State Revolving Fund, a program that provides low-interest loans to water, wastewater and sewer projects. In addition to McCarthy, project partners include Carollo Engineers Inc. and locally based Henry Carlson Construction.   Sioux Falls and the surrounding area are …
