Ardmore Roderick is proud to support Berglund Construction during the Phase 4 interior renovation of the historic Altgeld Hall on the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign campus.

The project pairs the restoration of distinctive historic features, from mosaics and murals to intricate woodwork, with modern building systems, accessibility improvements, and enhanced learning environments.

Behind that work are people like David Eisenmann, who represents Ardmore Roderick onsite as part of the construction management team, supporting the coordination and day-to-day field activities that help move the project forward.

Our team recently had the opportunity to visit the site and see the progress firsthand. We’re proud to play a role alongside our project partners in helping prepare this remarkable campus building for its next chapter!

Building It Together!

This past weekend, Ardmore Roderick team members across all offices came together in Chicago for our Annual All-Company Meeting. This year’s theme, Building It Together, was a reminder that Reimagining Infrastructure starts with our people and is brought to life through the ideas and contributions of our entire team.

From AI training sessions and our annual Friday night social event to celebrating our people, accomplishments and plans for what’s ahead, the weekend was all about connecting, learning and growing together. We even put the theme into action with a LEGO challenge that brought team members across roles together for a little creativity, collaboration and friendly competition!

We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished and excited for what we’ll continue Building It Together.

Last week, Ardmore Roderick team members came together for an AI Boot Camp focused on building practical skills and exploring how AI can support the way we work.

From learning new tools to putting them into practice, our team got hands-on with AI and explored how it can help us work smarter, collaborate better, and approach everyday challenges in new ways.

The boot camp was about more than learning the technology. It was about giving our people the tools and knowledge to keep learning, adapting, and bringing new ideas back to their teams and projects.

As technology continues to change our industry, we’re excited to keep learning together and finding new ways to put it to work as we continue Reimagining Infrastructure.
