AECOM Technology Corp.‘s Tishman Construction operation is serving as construction manager and general contractor for Arlington Devco LLC’s Arlington Downs.
Part of a $250 million redevelopment effort, this complete renovation and conversion of the former Sheraton Hotel in Arlington Heights will transform the 13-story building into a 214-unit luxury apartment and retail building.
Designed by Pappageorge Haymes Partners, the project features the renovation of the existing 300,000-square-foot tower, as well as the construction of a new 105,000-square-foot garage, new roadways, underground utilities and landscaping. The new subterranean parking garage will feature 312 parking spaces that will accommodate the new apartments.
“We are proud to be working with Arlington Devco on this innovative project for the Arlington Heights community,” said John Dionisio, AECOM chairman and chief executive officer. “Our construction services team is dedicated to successfully realizing the vision of this significant residential and retail redevelopment.”
Construction on the $53 million project is expected to be completed in the summer of 2014.
