This elementary school was constructed in 2019, and LS Glass’ main responsibility was the striking exterior curtain wall façade created using EFCO curtain wall and Oldcastle glass.
The 26,000 SF science addition houses the majority of LS Glass’ work, where we installed EFCO curtain wall and storefront at the 4 story plus rooftop terrace building.
This project involved adapting an existing building by Edward Durell Stone (architect of the MOMA in NYC and the Kennedy Center in DC) to become the new home of the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy. We partnered with Arnold Glas from Germany to provide glazing with internal UV markings.
LS Glass was responsible for the glazing of the new ADA accessible elevator towers standing over the station platforms. The towers are both captured and SSG glazed with CTA graphics to complete the look.
