 The
Shoreham
Alliance Fire
Protection has been awarded the contract to install fire
sprinkler systems in the Shoreham, a new 47 floor, 550
unit luxury condominium located at 400 East
South Water Street in Chicago. This project is scheduled to be completed
11/5/05.
Over 7100 Viking
upright pendent and sidewall fire sprinklers will be installed
in the Shoreham. Because of the height
of the building, two fire pumps will be installed. The building
will have 53 fire sprinkler systems. Five of the systems
are dry pipe and and 47 wet pipe.
The Shoreham will
be part of the 28-acre planned community known as
Lakeshore East. This planned community will consist
of apartments, town homes, office and retail space, as
well as a park and a new public elementary school.
The
Shoreham is being invested in by the The
Building Investment Trust (BIT) as part of its National Apartment Initiative
(NAI). The NAI is a multi-year,
$400 million equity investment initiative that seeks apartment
and condominium investment opportunities. NAI projects
are designed to promote the creation of housing
for communities as well as thousands of union construction
and related jobs in urban markets across the country.
