TAWANI Property Management’s (TPM) Pritzker Military Archives Center (PMAC), which is owned by the Pritzker Military Museum & Library, was presented with one of Illinois Real Estate Journals’ 2023 Commercial Real Estate Awards during a reception on June 1 at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare Chicago. The PMAC won under the Industrial / Manufacturing / Science – Education/Training/Cultural project category.
Leslie Stern, TPM Project Manager; Michael LaRue, TPM Facilities Manager; and Roberto Bravo, PMML Senior Director accepted the award.
TAWANI Property Management worked with Pepper/Riley Construction to bring the PMAC to life including hiring the award-winning, internationally recognized architectural firm, JAHN/. The center located in Somers, Wisconsin, will help to further the mission of the Chicago Museum & Library by providing a place for restoration, preservation, and storage of its collection. The building features a Gallery Center that is approximately 9,400 square feet for public viewing, offering the local community the opportunity to immerse themselves in history. Along with the archival space, workspace for the Museum & Library staff is included for continued curation of the military collection for future exhibits and serves as an academic center for researchers and will be taking appointments upon request.
Once open this year, the RE Journals’ award will live at the Pritzker Military Archives Center.
