• Prentice Operating Room Video Integration (Streeterville, Chicago) – Interior upgrades to 10 Operating Rooms and supporting services within Prentice Women’s Hospital. The upgrade consisted of finishes, millwork, terrazzo flooring, OR booms and lights with structure, and video integration systems with associated electrical work.
