Peoples Gas Bringing Service Facility to Sauganash

Peoples Gas broke ground Tuesday on the company’s new North Shop service facility at 4025 W. Peterson Ave. in Chicago’s Sauganash neighborhood. The 84,433-square-foot, two-story building, is set in the Peterson-Pulaski Industrial Corridor.

“The new North Shop will better serve the needs of our customers and employees, while bringing $60 million of new private investment to a predominantly vacant and underutilized site,” said Charles Matthews, president of Peoples Gas. It will reduce maintenance costs, improve the efficiency of customer responses, provide safer traffic flow for employees and include large meeting rooms available for public use, the company said.

The company has hired McKissack & McKissack and FH Paschen, which partnered with Epstein, to design and build the new facility. Peoples Gas anticipates completing construction by the fourth quarter of 2019.
