Gilbane Chicago

Our Gilbane superintendents throughout the Chicagoland area recently gathered for a peer group meeting. They shared valuable insights, strengthened connections, and engaged in critical discussions about job site safety and the future of construction with our regional president Michael Brown. This event fostered professional growth and reinforced our commitment to our ‘One Gilbane’ mindset. We’re proud to build more than buildings; we’re proud to build communities and support the future leaders of our industry. #WorkWithGilbane #OnSiteWithGilbane #SafetyFirst

Last month, we broke ground on the exciting $102 million project at Oak Park and River Forest High School. Our commitment to excellence and community impact is shining through every step of the construction process. “Gilbane checked all the boxes in terms of successful project completion, management on similar large-scale projects, and pool construction experience. They also have a leading-edge focus on diversity and equity in construction,” said Anthony Arbogast MBA, CSBO, assistant superintendent for business services at OPRFHSD. What’s in store for OPRF? A new natatorium, gymnasium, weight room, academic/athletic support areas, a green roof, performing arts renovations, and revitalized classrooms—all designed to redefine the campus! We’re Gilbane proud to contribute to this project for the District and surrounding community. #K12Builder #Community #Inclusion #Diversity FGM Architects

Gilbane Chicago and our UJIMA employee resource group came together to commemorate Juneteenth, a significant day in American history. Juneteenth symbolizes resilience, independence, and community. Our guest speaker, Dr. Briana Banks, delved into how social and environmental factors impact breast cancer risk and development, especially among Black/African American women. Her dedication to enhancing scientific literacy in marginalized communities is inspiring. For more insights, be sure to follow Dr. Briana Banks on Instagram: @bbthescientist. As we celebrate today, let’s take time to reflect, honor achievements, and continue the fight for justice and equality. Let’s continue to foster an inclusive industry where everyone thrives. _____________ About UJIMA: UJIMA, one of Gilbane’s seven employee resource groups, is a community of Black/African American employees and advocates who foster an inclusive culture by attracting and supporting professional development, community engagement, and a voice across the enterprise. #Juneteenth #Equality #BuildingMoreThanBuildings #GilbaneBuildsChicago #UJIMA #Inclusion
