According to the construction supervisor, about 90 percent of the work has been done by local contractors.” “The local workers here do a fantastic job.

  • ProMedica Headquarters

    –Contractors–Rudolph Libbe Group, Spieker General Contractors “By using local construction firms in the renovation and building phases of the Steam Plant, Junction, Promenade Park and The Depot parking garage, more than 1,000 construction workers and employees touched the project, which is where the element of pride comes in for Robin Whitney, senior vice president of real estate and construction at ProMedica.” “The community helped to build our campus, and they should all be proud of the work they’ve done.” She continued, “Pride leads to great things. When people are proud of their work, their dialogue begins to change and they will speak well about our city.”

  • The ProMedica Museum of Natural History at the Toledo Zoo

    Contractor – A.A. Boos & Sons Inc. “From the beginning you have a building that hasn’t been touched in years and it’s hard to build in,” noted Nathan Decker, Facilities Construction Project Manager with the Toledo Zoo. “Then there’s a lot in here that wasn’t normal. Like the huge piece of glass in the Komodo Dragon display. Instead of having 20 guys pick it up, A. A. Boos brought a machine from Chicago that lifted it with suction cups so it could be installed perfectly and safely.”

  • Toledo Refining Company LLC

    Scott Hayes- Manager of Health, Safety, Environmental and Government Affairs said, “We choose AGC of NWO contractor members such as Nooter and A.A. Boos because they are simply better trained in an environment where safety is the most important thing. In short you can rely on them for: Safe Quality Work.”
