  APT WGLC invites members to join us for a jobsite tour of restoration work at the cornice level of the Cudahy Condominiums on Milwaukee's lakefront, hosted by Bond Masonry Services and Klein & Hoffmann Engineers.

  Designed by Ferry and Clas in the Neoclassical/Beaux Arts style, the Cudahy Tower Condominiums were constructed in 1908. The building is distinguished by its terra cotta and glazed brick façade and place on Milwaukee's Lake Michigan waterfront.  This jobsite tour will provide a look at the ongoing restoration work of preserving the building’s terra cotta details.

  APT WGLC will meet at 2:00pm on the sidewalk in front of 777 N Prospect Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53202. Participants will be broken into two groups, and each group will have time allotted to a project overview and time allotted to see the terra cotta replacement in progress. All participants will need to remain with tour guides.

  This tour includes climbing scaffolding stair towers with an estimated 125 stairs and navigating high steps on an active construction site.  Please wear appropriate footwear (close- toed shoes), and bring a hardhat if you have one. A limited number of hard hats will be available for loan on site.  If you do not have appropriate PPE, you may be required to stay at ground level.  

  Please note that registration is limited to 15 members.

  Parking is available on nearby streets and in the Museum Center Parking Garage
