BOWA Construction

We’re proud to announce that the newly completed Food Hall at the UChicago Medicine’s Center for Care & Discovery—built by Bowa Construction—has been named a Record Interiors 2025 winner by Architectural Record. This thoughtfully designed café reimagines the ground floor space with warmth, elegance, and functionality, offering doctors, staff, patients, and visitors a serene alternative to traditional hospital dining. From its custom white oak millwork to terrazzo flooring and luminous natural light, every detail was crafted to provide comfort and connection in the heart of a world-class medical facility. Thank you to DAAM and all our project partners for helping bring this vision to life. #BuildWithBowa

Yesterday we had the pleasure of hosting the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) and the Illinois State Black Chamber of Commerce for an engaging Lunch & Learn session focused on commercial contracting, design-build services, and upcoming strategic opportunities with CTA. The session sparked good conversations, new connections, and valuable insights on how to tap into meaningful work across the city. At the core of it all is our focus of creating space for emerging contractors and those exploring the industry to grow their businesses, build relationships, and scale into new opportunities. #BusinessOpportunities #CommercialConstruction #chicagoconstruction

As we wrap up Women’s History Month, we’re highlighting the power of women in leadership and community impact with Stephanie Piccirilli, President & CEO of @IgnitePromise, and Chineze M., Director of Outreach on The Disruptors! Ignite is breaking cycles of youth homelessness, ensuring young people are defined by their potential—not their circumstances. In this episode, we explore equity, resilience, and the importance of investing in young women. And speaking of impact, last year, Bowa Construction hosted the Ignite's SPARKS cohort, giving young men and women the chance to visit Home Court at the Obama Presidential Center construction site and BOWA’s headquarters for an insightful Q&A our employees. These moments matter—representation and access open doors for the next generation of disruptors! Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gAzWpFBX or wherever you get your podcast.
