Field Trip Friday! Project Manager Andrew Busch and our Marketing team checked in on progress at the East Dubuque Emergency Services Building.

One focus on this project remains holding onto the character of the existing building while updating it to better serve the needs of departments today.

We’re especially excited about the upcoming glass-enclosed stairwell that will connect the existing Fire and Police stations, blending a sleek, modern feature with the original structure.
