CASE STUDY
Elliot ConstructionBuilt on Experience. Backed by Skill.
Elliot Construction partnered with Midwestern University to build a New Academic Building in Downers Grove, Illinois.
The project called for extensive foundation work and concrete flatwork. With more than 70 years of experience in Chicagoland, Elliot brought the skilled workforce and technical expertise needed to get the job done.
“This world only gets built one way. And the line of people lined up to take on this type of job and continue building the world is getting smaller by the day.”

Elliot Construction
The First Step Was 15 Feet Down.
Elliot Construction’s work began with a 15-foot-deep excavation.
The crew poured the footings and foundation walls, then moved on to the slab-on-grade and elevated slabs. Each level brought different construction methods and challenges.
The team adapted as the work progressed, coordinating the equipment and expertise needed to keep the project moving.
No Shortcuts on Safety.
Concrete construction demands constant attention to safety.
Elliot Construction’s union workforce brings training and hands-on experience to the jobsite. Workers know how to assess their surroundings, use the right personal protective equipment, and look out for the people working alongside them.
Every worker has a role in keeping the jobsite safe.
Skill Makes the Difference.
Good concrete work takes people who know their trade and understand the demands of the job.
Elliot Construction partners with the LMCC to connect with trained union workers who bring that knowledge to the field. Their experience helps crews solve problems, work safely, and deliver quality concrete.
Elliot has been building across Chicagoland since 1955. That experience, combined with a skilled union workforce, gives its crews the people and knowledge to take on demanding projects like Midwestern University’s New Academic Building.
