Tony has truly seen it all over his 42 years at ARCON — a career that’s actually longer than half of our employees have been alive! Along the way, he’s experienced more than most could imagine & accomplished an incredible amount throughout his time here.
Happy Anniversary, Tony!
Another one bites the dust…or maybe just a whole lot of dirt! Work at Larkin Stadium has been digging into high gear these past weeks as crews tackled stormwater detention system excavation. There’s plenty more action ahead, with summer heating up so is construction. Stay tuned!
After 24 years at ARCON, Brian McElmeel can’t narrow it down to just one favorite memory — but somehow, they all seem to involve a golf course!
Happy Anniversary, Brian!
Are you heading to Peoria this week for @IllinoisASBO's Annual Conference? Don’t miss ARCON’s very own V.P. Trinh presenting “New Kids on the Block: How to Keep the Community Informed from Referendum through Construction” on Wednesday.
Faculty & staff deserve a refresh too! This summer @SaintViatorHS's Staff Lounge & Workroom is getting a complete renovation. Think cozy booth seating, spots for collaboration & professional development. Everything needed for a purposeful flexible workspace for educators & staff.
Congratulations to @DPS109 on the successful passage of the Redefine 109 Referendum! ARCON is honored to be part of the team that will not only help update the district’s facilities but will work to create spaces that students will thrive in & that will inspire lifelong learning.
After one year at ARCON, Justin Maglaque has already contributed to a variety of projects and watched many of them progress from drawings to ribbon‑cuttings.
Happy Anniversary Justin!
Ready for baseball season? We are & so is @WintrustField! We are proud to have played a role in elevating the fan experience with 2 newly refreshed spaces: the Left Field Party Deck & the First Base Line Tiered Seating. More ways to enjoy every pitch - see you there this season!
Reflecting on 31 years at ARCON, Mike Maguire shared that choosing just one favorite moment is impossible — there have simply been too many.
Happy Anniversary Mike!
@sdu46@LarkinRoyals1 The new complex will provide dedicated facilities for football, soccer, track, and more—bringing the Royals athletic program HOME at last. ARCON Associates is proud to be part of this historic moment and excited to help create a true home field for the Larkin community.
Big day for @sdu46's @LarkinRoyals1! Faculty, students & community members gathered together to break ground on the new Royals athletic complex. As the only high school in the district without the ability to host a ‘home’ game, this project marks a long-awaited milestone.
Celebrating 1 year with ARCON Sophie shares what brings her back to the office every day.

"Sharing laughs & conversations with my coworkers is what keeps me energized every day!"
It feels like we were just breaking ground at @BerwynSouth100's new District Ed. Center, & now the place is buzzing with progress. This week, the masons are laying face brick while the roofers are up top insulating & getting us buttoned up.
We’re moving right along!
The cold never bothered us anyway — construction keeps moving at @URS86Husky. This addition & renovation project is taking shape as concrete slabs are prepped for final floor installation & 2nd floor painting, wall tile, & lighting progress steadily.
Construction at Elk Grove Village Ice Arena is flying down the ice. Precast installation is almost out of the penalty box, with final panels set to drop next week. With the structure taking shape & momentum building, this project is definitely headed for a highlight-reel finish.
We are very excited to announce that at the beginning of this year, seven members of our team were promoted to various new roles. Please join us in congratulating these guys! We look forward to seeing each succeed in their new position!
2025 has been a great year in a variety of ways & we'd like to introduce you to 5 of them! This team of new Architectural Associates joined us over the course of the year; diving head first into compiling plans, estimates & more. Please join us in welcoming our 5 new ARCONians!
Join us in celebrating our November & December ARCON Anniversaries: Brian Kukla, Frank Panteleon & Keith Podalak! These three bring many smiles & laughs to our office every day - not to mention lots of hard work! Happy Anniversary Brian, Frank & Keith!
