Project Description

Working as the majority partner of the White Olson LLC, White Construction provided top quality General Contracting services for the two (2) story structural steel U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Building. Supported by a drilled caisson foundation, this building is covered in brick veneer, curtain wall, and metal panels. Located within the facility are the offices of Homeland Security and a ceremony room for new citizens. A two level 367 space pre-cast parking deck was also constructed on the project site.

The successful completion of this project challenged White’s construction professionals to overcome budget constraints, tight site logistics, tenant coordination, and extremely contaminated soil pockets. The project’s owner was presented with $2,000,000 in value engineering options, of which $1,500,000 were selected and put into place. The eco-friendly structure was designated to receive LEED Silver certification.
