ALA’s New Headquarters Completes Buildout
Skender, serving as general contractor, recently completed interior construction of the 55,000-square-foot Chicago headquarters of the American Library Association (ALA), the oldest and largest library association in the world. ALA sold its longtime headquarters at 50 E. Huron and 40 E. Huron in River North last December.
Located on a single floor at 225 N. Michigan Ave. in the East Loop, the new ALA space features a mix of private and open-concept workspaces, enhanced meeting and focus spaces, a library, as well as multiple podcasting and video conferencing rooms.
Skender collaborated with architect Nelson Worldwide, engineer Environmental Systems Design and owner’s representative Cushman and Wakefield.
