Building projects

Bukacek Construction is in the process of designing and building a $900,000 addition to Norco Manufacturing’s Racine County facility located in the Town of Raymond. The 12,500-square-foot addition will almost double the size of the existing 15,000-square-foot facility. The project will be constructed of masonry block to match the appearance of the original building, which houses Norco’s aircraft hangar door manufacturing operation.
Plymouth-based Jim Pankow, Inc., has landed several design-build projects in Sheboygan, Ozaukee and Dodge counties. Projects include:

  • A 12,000-square-foot addition for Orion Lighting & Energy Services in Plymouth. The addition will almost double Orion’s existing 12,000 square feet, and will provide space for research and development functions as well as warehousing. The building will feature 35-foot-high ceilings.
  • A 9,343-square-foot addition to the Fredonia Veterinary Clinic in Fredonia. The addition will augment the original farmhouse building, which had been converted to a clinic for large and small animals.

  • Two projects for J.W. Jung Seed in Randolph. Pankow will design and execute 14,000 square feet of renovations to Jung’s existing facility and also construct a 12,690-square-foot warehouse addition.
  • A 13,125-square-foot addition to Lakeland Sports Center’s building in Plymouth. Pankow also constructed the original building for the truck cap and bedliner manufacturer in 1999.
  • A 13,091-square-foot addition for the church and school buildings of St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church in Plymouth. The additional school space will increase the church school’s area dedicated to arts and sciences and add classrooms for preschool and junior kindergarten students. The church expansion will include additional fellowship space.
