McCormick Theological Seminary Admin Building Recognized

M+W Zander was presented with a Distinguished Building Award at AIA Chicago’s Designight on September 19, 2003 in recognition of the firm’s design for the New Administration Building and Underground Parking Facility for McCormick Theological Seminary in Chicago. The 42,000-gsf building and 60,000-gsf parking garage complex was completed in May 2003, for which M+W Zander provided master site planning, programming, architectural design, and construction administration services. The new building houses administrative and faculty offices in addition to conference, fellowship, study, and lounge spaces. In a unique inter-denominational relationship with the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, both seminaries share classroom, library, dining, and worship spaces, and the new parking garage is carefully placed below a new garden courtyard.
