Insurance and financial firm Northwestern Mutual selected a team of Gilbane Building Co. with CG Schmidt as general contractor and construction manager for its $500-million project to modernize its 33-year-old North Office Building at its Milwaukee headquarters campus. The renovation will enable the company to relocate about 2,000 employees
from a suburban office in Franklin, Wis., to its downtown campus, says Northwestern.
A list of the anticipated bid packages and information on becoming prequalified are available on Gilbane’s web page for the project. Representatives from more than 100 firms attended a contractor information session about the project earlier this month, according to Gilbane and Schmidt.
