Lincoln Elementary School

Best K-12 School Building

The leaders of Highland Park High School outside of Chicago, IL knew they needed to replace the aging gymnasium and pool building, but the school had a limited budget and tight schedule. The sensible solution was to chose LAPPCO and Precast Concrete to get the job done.
Michael Dolter from Perkins+Will stated that LAPPCO and Precast Concrete “simplified the construction process, allowing construction to meet the delivery goals and the project budget.” Both buildings were erected over the winter in a matter of weeks, ensuring minimal disruption for the operating campus.
