Department of Water Management: Facility, Shops & Vehicle Storage

Completed in 2004, the PBC implemented a cost-saving building technique on this project that reused the original building’s foundation to construct a new Department of Water Facility. Employing a contemporary architectural design created a fresh look for the 42,000-square-foot building that houses Chicago’s water meter testing site, maintenance shops and warehouse space. In addition, the PBC built a garage to store departmental vehicles as well and a one-story office building, both located on the Water Facility site.
