Skender Completes New 64,000-SF Office for Global Nutrition Company

Skender Construction recently completed a 64,000-square-foot interior office buildout for Mead Johnson, a leading nutrition company for babies and children. The baby formula company, a new division of Reckitt Benckiser’s, has relocated from Glenview, Illinois to 444 W. Lake Street in downtown Chicago.

The three-floor project included a 1,500-square-foot slab cut for a self-supporting feature staircase with custom rails and a 2,000-square-foot one of a kind Arktura ceiling system. The space also contains a high tech audio visual system, high-end lobby, open floor plan, conference rooms and executive offices.

Serving as general contractor, Skender worked in collaboration with Partners by Design, Environmental Systems Design and Development Resources, Inc. to complete the project in 20 weeks.
