Boer Architects, Inc. completed the construction of a 4,000 sf renovation of the 3rd floor of the Milwaukee County Safety Building. The entire space, which once comprised a portion of the original Milwaukee County jail, was gutted and completely renovated. Work included new waiting area and reception, open office landscape, private offices, conference rooms, work/copy room and storage area. A kitchenette and two toilets were also added. Boer Architects, Inc. coordinated all work provided by structural, plumbing, HVAC and electrical engineering consultants, and provided a full range of architectural services, including design, construction documents and construction administration services. Challenges included demolition of the existing jail cells to allow for new construction, maintaining security within the Safety Building and greater MC Courthouse Complex and not disturbing utility services in a building that had to remain occupied and functional during completion of this project.
