Bartlett Hall Dining Commons
Berglund Construction is managing the restoration of Bartlett Hall Dining Commons at the University of Chicago, meticulously overseeing and replacing and removing damaged ashlars and adding new stone, as-well as matching it.

Project Overview

Berglund is managing the restoration of the University of Chicago’s Bartlett Hall Dining Commons. We are restoring all four of the exterior walls, rebuilding all turrets and parapets, and tuckpointing 100% of the building. Additionally, we are replacing damaged ashlars with new stone, matching the existing stone, and are removing the existing roof and skylight with a clay tile roof and 200-foot-long skylight.

On this project, we have limited space for activities and for material laydown surrounding the building. We have implemented detailed site logistics and safety plans to keep workers, staff, students, and visitors safe during construction. Our team works in constant collaboration with the design team and the University of Chicago to ensure all activities happen on schedule.
