Membership Milestones, November 2008

Saturday, Nov 1, 2008

James McHugh Construction Company completed the 92nd floor of the Trump Tower. In three years, McHugh has poured 180,000 cubic yards of concrete-20,000 truckloads-and laid 25,000 tons of steel. McHugh introduced to the United States a three-story-tall windscreen that provided protection from cold and winds. In September crews were slated to begin work on attaching the spire that will cause the building to reach a height of 1,362 feet, making it the second tallest building in Chicago.
