Practical Rehab Includes ALUCOBOND® Material at Justice Center
A focus on the practical distinguished the rehab of a vacant building which became the new Madison County Criminal Justice Center in Edwardsville, Illinois. Aluminum composite material (ACM) panels of ALUCOBOND® Material were chosen to blend with existing travertine panels and provide “a basic metal look,” according to Frank Wiseman, Vice President of Architecture for Lefferson & Associates, Inc. of Alton, Illinois, the architectural firm that designed the new Center. Both the ALUCOBOND® Material and travertine panels complement brick on the renovated project, which opened in early March, 2005.
