Mosaic Construction Completes Renovations at Evanston Distillery

Mosaic Construction LLC, a full-service commercial and multifamily design-build firm, has completed renovations at FEW Distillery, a craft distillery with global distribution based at 918 Chicago Avenue in Evanston, Illinois.

Mosaic conducted a structural renovation to the 3,000-square-foot distillery, adding support to the barrel roof and bow trusses at the industrial-inspired whiskey production facility. FEW, a grain-to-glass distillery, became the first maker of whiskey and gin in Evanston since Prohibition ended.

The renovation led by Mosaic includes new steel columns, support beams, a concrete floor and electrical work. Moshe Calamaro and Associates (engineering), Battaglia Electric (electric), Twin Bros. Paving (concrete flooring) and GCS Roman Steel Work (steel) partnered with Mosaic on the project.

“Mosaic’s expertise ensured that our distillery operations can remain in the Evanston space we love and continue as a home for the production of our award-winning spirits,” said Riley Henderson, Head of Operations at FEW Spirits.
