House Governors Chair – The Lathrop House / Home of the Fortnightly of Chicago

Our second important project, begun and completed this summer, was the replacement of the roof over the ballroom. This new roof-lighter, brighter, and with greater insulating properties – somehow was installed continuously UNDER all of the mechanical equipment already in place. We are grateful to Knickerbocker Roofing and Paving Co., Inc. for their expertise and patience in bringing this challenging project to completion. We look forward to many happy years enjoying what we do, in this room, under this new roof ….. The Knickebocker team did their usual fine job AND came in under budget.
