IRON MOUNTAIN — Design Cost Data Magazine highlighted the new Municipal Service Center project, which Gundlach Champion was contracted as general contractor and cost estimator by the city of Marquette. The design-build team of Gundlach Champion worked with Fishbeck, Thompson, Carr & Huber and GEI Consultants to plan, design, and construct the new Municipal Service Center.

The 110,000-square-foot facility was completed in 2017 and included vehicle maintenance, vehicle storage, integrated warm and cold storage, welding bays, a drive-through truck wash, locker room and break spaces for public works staff, and 17,000 square feet of offices configured for public works, engineering, and community development and planning.

For over a century, GCI has been providing preconstruction and project delivery systems to the commercial, educational, healthcare, industrial, and public facilities markets throughout the Upper Peninsula and the Midwest.
