The Turner Paschen Aviation Partners (TPAP) successfully delivered another critical enabling project for the O’Hare 21 Program. This spring, we successfully commissioned the Lower C Concourse (LCE) gates connected to Terminal 1, Concourse C. The project reconfigured Gate C10 and relocated gates C4, C6, and C8 – opening the footprint for the upcoming Satellite 1. Additionally, this project achieved several noteworthy diverse and capacity-building goals. ✅ 32% of the work was completed by MBE & WBE firms. ✅ Two new first-time primes to ORD. Congratulations to Powers & Sons Construction and Specialty Construction on the successful completion of your projects! ✅ One Small Business Initiative (SBI) Trade Package – Specialty Construction, LLC. ✅ All Trade Packages were led by either an MBE, SBI or a Minority-owned firm.

#CelebrateJuneteenth Lift on high ten thousand voices, Blow the trump of Jubilee; All the slavish land rejoices, Sing triumphant all are free; Sing delightful, All who live this day to see.

I can fondly remember, as a kid, taking our summer trip to downtown Chicago. Although we lived on the Westside and later in Cabrini Green visiting downtown Chicago was considered a vacation and only happened once a year during the Taste of Chicago. The approval of the LaSalle street cooridor and 79 W Monroe projects will increase affordable housing units in the loop by 1,000%. Providing both Market Rate and Affordable units, the playing field is being leveled and quality housing will be available to all income classes regardless of race. This type of investment will have a major impact on lower income households and could become the catalyst for shrinking generational wealth gaps within these families. Children on the south and west sides will no longer have to visit the loop they will live there! GMA Construction Group along with its partner #LeopardoConstruction is excited to be apart of the first wave of affordable housing in downtown Chicago! #DevelopingPeople #TransformingCommunities #TeamGMA #AffordableHousing
